Haven't posted pix of this guy in a while, he's always hiding in the rocks, these are the only decent ones I was able to get.

Caught from a pond at 1" over the summer, now he's about 4 1/2" Don't mind my spotted rapael lodged in the corner :screwy:

i had 3 bullheads in my 135 tank. got em dip netting a ditch for chubs. at night or when the light was low they cruised the tank for food. otherwise they pretty much just did zero during the day.

At the lake I caught him, I've noticed that they school in groups even during the day. Going to try and catch a group of about 8 or 9 for my 600g pond this summer and see if this increases thier activity level...gonna be interesting since it's a swimming lake and I have to catch them underwater.:D

right on bro good luck!! diving around big cats is cool, theyre not too shy. i grabbed a 10 lb cats tail spearfishing beofre, it darted away tho after. grab a butterfly net, sounds kinda lame but it works for getting gobies which hold to the bottom also.

They pop up in the most unlikely places! If you're ever in Northeast PA I'll point you in the direction of a couple ponds that are loaded with them. :D
