Iowa Cats

[korn_fish]

Im looking at making a trip down to Iowa in early may to chase some flatheads around. Anyone have some input on how the rivers and bite are doing?

early june is a better time to river catfish around cedar rapids area, I fish coralville lake along rock drop offs using just a hook and a float about 2-3 ft deep,
hook worm like a plastic rig let it sit for about 6-10 seconds, reel in alittle let sit for another 6-10 and continue. Make lots a casts use trolling motor to move you slowly up bank.

Thanks Hawkeye. However, flatheads will be my target. Not channels.
