Tried to catch bait, caught a big flathead instead!
Спорт
Had about an hour to kill before I had to get ready to go to work. Decided that I was going to try and snag a couple of Asian carp for trapping bait to use in the fall. Ended up catching my personal best Flathead Catfish on the third cast! Time well spent before work!

I hope you let that big flat head go unless you were going to eat him enjoyed the video my friend

Thanks! He already provided one meal. The rest is in the freezer for another day. Best tasting fish in the river.
Congrats

I was out there yesterday and only got carp. That was a very nice flathead, I have been catching some nice ones at the siphons on shad and sunfish.

Thanks. I was very happy with it. Glad to hear you have been catching some. I plan on doing some live bait fishing soon.
When i was younger a buddy used to take me to the dam and we would snag huge carp and cats . Wasnt till he walked up and burnt my line with his cigarette. That i found out it was illegal. He said the warden just pulled up boy!! It sunk in at that point lol. Last snagging trip ever

Get with me and we can run out there one morning when you’re off. You can use my gear if you need to. Be glad to take you.
Where is this?

St. Francis River Basin in Northeast Arkansas is about as detailed as I can get. Thanks for watching!
In most states it's illegal to snag and keep catfish

Thanks for watching. My target was invasive Asian carp. The flathead was bycatch. He was legal, welcome, and very tasty. I will catch some in the mouth soon and post it. Take care.
