So I guess you have to find some flatheads from hatcheries.

ok, you are living in Pearsall, which is near San Antonio! go to goole map, zoom in to your city and search for fish hatchery! you can find some of them, most of them are private hatchery so you can buy fry from them!

contact your local DNR they will have a list of all your local hatcheries.

You could try a casting net with some bait thrown in it. BTW, I live in South Texas about 300 miles south of you! LOL

Flathead catfish must be 18inches long to be legally kept. So I advise that you do not use this netting method to catch baby flatheads, nor you have a right to give an advice like this.

Try a cast net in the shallows............
