I kept a nice sized group, so I am hoping that since they are a schooling fish that this will help them get used to tank life faster.

Man just come down to pittsburgh. The only flatheads I catch in the allegheny are 10-16"! LOL. The worst part is I know there's monsters in there, I just can't catch them!
haha I believe you bro...I never even try for them around here..I know they are in moraine but hell with trying to find the flats and deep water they use...channels and bullheads all day though
Oh yeah, we catch tons of monster channels and bullheads, just no big flatties. Last year I scored an almost 16" bullhead at one of my local lakes and I catch 16-24" channels regularly on the allegheny. In Erie back in may I landed a monster 32" (21 pound) channel from our private pier on a daredevle (LOL) and a guy I know caught a 35"r trolling in front of one of the tribs for steelhead with a stickbait the other week!
We regularly catch 15-20 pound channels and 20-25 pound flatties right here in our canals in the Phoenix area Where it usually only about 5 ft deep in most places.
If you want my small flathead maybe we can work something out.
Here a pic of an 18 lb channel I caught and a 12 lb flattie I caught which was the smallest one of the day.
Hell no my phone didn't. It started working again but then started having all kinds of issues so I found another one just like it on craiglist for $100.
Tell you what on the the flatty. You send me that care package of goodies you came up with and I'll send him to you plus just the cost of shipping. I've shipped larger fish before so he shouldn't be a problem even though I'm a little rusty. Also if you want, I know a great spot on the canals I can toss the cast net and bring it back at least one to several fingerling channel kitties.
