I don't have any right now but I do have a spot that I ussually can catch a few smaller ones 8-15 inchers.
I haven't been to my spot yet this year though but I will go check it out and see how the fishing is ( the river is really up right now ) so it will prolly be a couple weeks

How big of a flathead did ya want ? as far as cost I really don't have a clue what to ask for it ... I know with shipping large fish it gets expensive and would prolly be cheaper to find a hatchery in your area and get one from them

where I catch the baby flatheads newar me Is on part of the miss. river

I fish usinng a med light rod and , use a namrl river rig ... swivel then foot and a half down a sinker.
on the swivel I use a 1 foot long leader and a small eagle claw hook can't think of the exact size ... but use peices of nightcrawlers .. Its simple really
the main things to look for is to look for water 3-4 feet deep , Good sized Rocks on bottom for cover and they uyse them as current breaks and thats it really( Forgot to write to cast to a spot close to a Big rock or boulder on the opposite side that the current of the river is flowing ...
