I've been trying for the big flatheads on the Minnesota for TWO YEARS and haven't caught a single one. Then I catch this little guy on the Mississippi. I'm ecstatic.

Sorry about the picture of the double. First time doing the self portrait. I wish it was better but I didn't want to keep the fish out of the water any longer.

Nice one!!!!i never caught one but have seen some huge ones down on Table Rock Resevoir near the surface in 80 feet of water. i asked the resort guy why the flatheads where on the surface [i thought they were bottom feeders]. he told me they were after bluegills. i had one of those on but it broke off on me, but i'll never forget the fight. i had lighter bass tackle so it was no match for the cat. good luck.

Yes I agree, I had a good guide and a comfortable boat to fish out of! I could have sat there all night, but my better half wanted to get going. Next time she can go shopping or watch a movie instead shocked

It was a great weekend to be out on the river. Me and a buddy put 9 cats on the beach friday night, and you cant complain about a view like this.

This one ate two 10-12" suckers. The fish came up with a hook in each corner of its mouth and managed to tangle is up in the brush pile.

My friend had to go in early so I was left alone to deal with this pig so its not a real great pic.
