whoah sooooooo... where on earth do you catch flatheads and blues? i would love to go catch some. keep the pictures coming pls...

Caught these @ the Dam (TX) , they swim up when the dam is open, feeding mostly on Perch, we also caught them with large shad and the blues and channels on very small shad.....if the water is running heavy it is excellent fishing, when it is low they head back down river
