Can't say I know anything about fishin for flatheads up your way,I have fished for for them in ponds mostly but I guess i'm pretty much a bass man. My favorites are kentuckys (sootted) and of course large and smallmouth are real high on the liost too!!I fish a 22,000 acre lake in Arkansas that is also in Missouri (Lake Norfork) It's a great lake to fish but it's usually clear as can be with little cover so fishing can be quite a bit of a challenge.I guess that's why have so many tournaments there,anyway as long as it's water and it's got fish in it...it's all good!! :mrgreen:
I'm sure somebody on here knows a little somethin about flats up your way,good luck!!

Hey Kat im only about 2 hours out of your way in Columbus, Ohio see your in pittsburgh (GO BROWNS!) HAHA. Dont know much bout flat heads up around that way though. Most of my experience is walleyes,saug's, catfish, and bass.

Im not sure though i havent seen many people on this site from our area, none from ohio. Ill be up near cleveland quite a bit this summer maybe ill run into you.

Quackr,

Are you doing any off-season training, like maybe jerking a set of barbells out of a submerged drainage pipe just to keep in practice, lol? :wink:

I've been slinging big bags of duck and goose decoys over into the boat and the back of the truck all winter in preparation. :lol:

June will be here before you know it.
