What size Flathead are you going to catch this year.

I'm hoping to bust the 40# mark or at least beat my PB 33.5# Flattie.

 

Well Jason, I might get lucky and catch one of the big ones that you released while you were out here! Since I am fishing the Colorado this year and not restricted to the canals, Im hoping for a giant in the 30lb range.

 

i am not really shooting to catch a monster flat because i am happy with some fast action a bunch of 15 to 20,s will make me as happy as 1 50#!!! i also catch alot of flats on cut skipjack some guys believe it some dont.....

 

I would love to catch a 40 lbr, good luck with your goal

 

That will be my first goal, which is to get a personal best flathead this year. I will be targeting flatheads all over western Kentucky and southern Indiana from the Ohio,Green,Wabash rivers to Kentucky /Barkley & Energy lakes.

 

Well I hope its bigger than 26 pounds since that was my PB last year. But if not, Ill take whatever decides to take my bait. rspd507

 

I'm not gonna get greedy, just want a new PB in the high 30's if not 40.

Good luck fellas in 2008 ad keep us all up to date!

 

I am hoping to beat my PB of 1/4lb flathead. I am hoping it isn't that hard to beat!

 

Any flathead is a good flathead. I would like to break that 25 lb mark personally.

 

im hoping to land 1 in the 40# range but anything better than my PB of 36 will work :big_smile:

 

Hopin to be my personal best of 25lb+. Learned alot last year. Renewed my passion for fishing. Some reason it wasnt there two years ago. Alota personal reasons prolly. Wish we'd stop getting snow so i could go out

 

Shooting for 50lbs.............. got a 44 and 45 and a few high 30s under my belt... Not many 50lbs pulled in the last couple years in my neck of the woods....... got my fingers crossed.

 

I am shooting for the ohio record, he must be close to 77-lbs.

 

I want to catch 100lbs of fish in two fish, So I guess it depends on Captain Hugh. If he gets me an 80lb. Blue, then I only need a 20..... But if he only gets me on a 30.... Well, I'll have my work cut out for me lol!

 

hope to break 50 at least once this year.

 

Personally, I am hoping to break 60 this year. Got lucky enough to land a couple of 50's last year.

Tell me more about yuor cut skippy flatheads. Are you fishinging deep holes or shallow structure? Day or night? Anything else that seems relevent?

I have caught some nice flatheads on cut bait, but mostly while targeting blues - seemed like if I put the bait in their face, they'd eat it. For targeting flatheads out feeding, seems more productive to give them the live baits.

 

This will be my first season fishing for flatheads. I'm not concerned with size, I just want to catch some. Once I figure out where they are and what tactics work on them, then I will worry about size. Of course, a 48 lb.er (which would be a new state record) would be just fine with me.

 

Hope to beat my p.b. of 46# !!!!!oooh:
