The catfish are starting to bite in the rivers pretty good now that the waters warming up nicely. My daughter hooked into a nice flathead the other night and we seen it as it rolled on the surface. She couldn’t turn it using a 3″ bluegill and it bent the gullet in a 3ot. stainless treble hook. Seen a 10 pound flathead caught the other night on a 6″ shad and the waters down almost to normal now so the really big ones may start hitting soon. The rivers here sure got a good gully washing this spring and the bottoms are all clean with most of the sediment setteling in the low flooded areas as the water came down.
