Catching Flatheads on Trout Chunks and Live Sunfish
What do you think this Catching Flatheads on Trout Chunks and Live Sunfish video?
Fished the Schuylkill recently after a bit of rain, water had some color and flow and the flatheads were biting pretty well. Didn’t catch any monsters but caught a good number of fish with the biggest being close to 24lbs. I caught 3 rainbow trout for bait while Tan brought a bucket of sunfish, the fish didn’t have much preference. Hopefully there will be some more flathead vids in the near future, last year I didnt publish and flathead vids because the action was pretty beat most trips, most of the season was drought conditions and the catfishing was poor. This year things seem to be a little better.
