Anybody have some strategies for satching Madtom catfish?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Get a buddy to help you flip the rocks. I conned one of my roomates to go with me a few weeks ago and after we had used the seine, I had him flip the larger rocks towards him while I made a quick swipe under the rock as he flipped it. We caught a whole bunch of madtoms, darters, and bullheads.
 
I've had luck getting them in leaf mats.
