Larry's long 25# Flatty pulled from an old Dam structure, Flatheads
sure do like concrete structures.

35# Flathead
22# Flathead
22# Flathead
All of these Flatheads were caught out of one hole on the
Ohio River on 8-26-99, in 55 feet of water, on live bait. It was cold 52 degrees air temp.
with a bunch of wind on the river but we had current and the fish were hungry. This is
just only one time since May that I have had current on the river, these cats were stuck
tight to concrete cover on the river bottom, Frank VanWinkle and I were fishing together
and we pulled a total of 9 Flatheads off of this structure. I got lucky or was holding my
mouth right these were the big ones and they ended up on the end of my poles.
Larry's 22# Flathead taken below the Meldahal Dam this summer.
Opie's 15# Channel Cat one of the largest Channels we saw
