This cat hit at 2:20 on live gill thrown at a log in a ft and a half of water. It didnt run too much until it got close to boat then it got tangled up in 5 other lines, the trolling motor and then the anchor rope. I finally got it to where I could get a gaff in its lip and boat it. |

I was fishing for blue cats anchored in one of my favorite spots. I had a decent morning with the blues with the biggest being 28 lbs. Well , it was about time to call it a morning when one of my rods slowly started bending towards the water. I grabbed it up and set the hook. This fish didn't want to come off of the bottom, I new it as a pretty good one. When I finally got it to the top I could see it was a flathead. After netting it and getting it in the boat, I just set down and looked at it for a minute.It was by far my biggest flathead. I don't target flatheads that much, it was a nice suprise. A guy that was coming up the lake was nice enough to pull up and take my picture with it. |
