Daytime is the rite time!

We hit the water this past weekend, after some scouting of new water we marked a few spots to try. At our first spot I got a run just 40 minutes into the night, it was a 6-7lb Flatthead. Just a short time later my buddy got a run, and landed a similar size Flathead on Cutbait. Then the wait began......NOTHING for hours...we moved several times and still nothing...but our waiting payed off, on our way back to the ramp around 7:30am (Long night) my buddy suggested we fish a spot we had passed up earlier, and I am glad we did! This guy was lurking and waiting for a Bullhead to eat, he picked mine......

Wow, long night! Nice fish, man these things are pretty unpredictable sometimes, eh?

Nice fish. Did you get a weight or length measurement?

No, I did not, I wish I had, this was one HEAVY fish, any guesses on weight?

Heres another pic......notice the girth at the base of the tail....thick fish!

22-24lbs...its always nice to have a daylight picture.

I'll second that guesstimate. Very nice fish Mate... makes the all nighters worth it when you can end on high note.

I'll third it as well. I think its a mid-twenties fish. Solid fish man! Length will be upper thirties probably (38-40")

Well it happened AGAIN!! This time it was my buddy who hooked a good fish after daylight....6:40 am, another mid-twenties Flattie......I think we may have stumbled onto a weird pattern......
