[Lowblazah]

lol...a little muddy where you were fishing???

[Bass Whacker]

just a bit soft, thats actually prtty solid compared to most of the summer the high water never let the island dry out like it usually dose

[Carp-fisher]

Sorry dude, I let outta big belly laugh when I saw all that mud. I've shore fished in some muddy spots, but I think you got me beat. Nice fish by the way.

[mrklean]

[Gordie]

[Bass Whacker]

yeah its my bass flippen stick all my big rods were up at school it got the job done, but the curado did not have enough drag thats for sure

[MinnesnowtaWild]

Yeah not an ideal rig for Flatheads.

Were you guys targeting Flats or just stumble upon this one on accident.

[DARK30]

[aanderud]

That smile says it ALL! Very nice work. Fishing in that mud takes some dedication! Congrats on the PB!

[Bass Whacker]

flats were what we were after. We had 3 other small ones that night and my buddy lost a nice one. The next night the gar wouldnt leave us alone, made it tough to keep a bait in the water.

[Gordie]

Thats awsome a flat on a carrot stick I love it bet that was like no other fight you've had.

[Mr Special]

Finally was able to boat some nice flats last night.

i was out last night fishing for sturgeons and didnt catch a single sturgeon. however, i did catch some sumo channels and 3 flats. 26", 35x22 and 42x26. so i guess the best way to catch flats is NOT TO FISH FOR THEM. since these were only my 3 n 4th flats of the yr lol go figure eh

[wastewaterguru]

Very nice. Figures.

[Gordie]

nice kittys MR.S

[Mr Special]

thx guys,

my next plan is to go bass fishing and catch sturgeons lol

[Larry FlatCaster]

Nice fish Mr.Special!!!

[aanderud]

Nice fish, Phil. I like em fat! Funny that you have to go sturgeon fishing to get into the fat flatties. :-)

[Mr Special]

Got this FAT Flatty 32x24 last night while fishing for Sturgeons.

That makes 4 flats in the last 2 outings, which is a total of about 9hrs of fishing lol

I cant believe I spent countless sleepless hrs this season chasing them and all i had to do was NOT TARGET flats to catch them.

Fish are weird !!
