Id imagine that this question has been asked A LOT.... what type of cat fights the most and which one fights the least, and please don't say "the big ones fight the hardest". Cause that just shows your intelligence level. Anyways, the question stands.

You mean does a channel, blue, or flathead fight hardest? Most say a flatty will fight all the way to the net, where as a blue will eventually give up and roll over. I'm looking forward to finding my first flatty this spring.

Sometimes they fight and sometimes they roll up, depends on individual fish.

True. They dont alway roll up. I would say a flat head is the harder fighting cat fish there is in these parts.

i would need to catch a big channel to give my opinion ,i know the little 1's got spunk !i would like to try a 20+ lb'er

For it's size I would also say a channelcat

This guy, the one in my backyard probably fights the hardest but since that's where your located, you probably already know this!

From the two flattys I've caught I would say flatty fight harder. But it also depends on the fish and I thing time of year. I've had some late spring and summer blues give it all they had, they're lean and mean.

It all depends on the conditions. Cold weather fish are more to just roll. Warm they fight a bit more. Warm and early morning feeding hold on

I have to say a flat-head fights harder, from this picture, you can see that even a small one has the equipment to be a bigger fighter!!!

Channelcat.

Nailed it!

Huh?

Ive noticed in some of your signitures you hold cats by the lower lip. I though they had teeth?

Took me a second to comprehend. ha

Yes they have teeth!!

Hardheads are the hardest fighting catfish. This guy why don't you put your real location down?

+1

I would have to say Flatheads for sure..

Flatheads outta the river fight pretty dadgum hard!!

Flatties for sure

prolly irrelevant but hand to hand or hand to mouth a blue cat will hurt ya ... a 10#'er can snap yer hand & it feels like being hit with a 2x4 ... a yella will snap ya but it don't hurt where a blue will stun the carp outa ya ... only had 1 yella ever hurt me, 31#'er & he would inhale my hand and shake his whole body, head to tail hard as he could, then spit my hand out and back up just out of reach ... did that 6 times before i got a hold of'im ... couldn't put my hand in my pants pocket next day cuz it was so cut up

I know not directed at me, but thought I'd chime in..

I tried "lipping" this yellow bull over the weekend and that was a mistake. Hurt like hell.




I've never caught a blue, but think flatheads fight harder than channels.

Why don't you put your social security number down?
