Well it was 2009 when I caught a 72 lbs Flathead catfish in lake Bridgeport. Didn't get it certified then. But now I want to go back and eclipse the 51 lbs record. Tomorrow will be the start of the chase.

Welllllllll. I didn't get what I went for. Was only able to get one 6 lbs Flatty. I am on a mission though. So I will keep trying. I also wanted to put my New ProAngler 7.6ft Rod and KastKing Reel to work. I will try to keep everyone posted. BTW. if you are chasing flatheads. Live perch is the way to go.

OK Guys. I have never went out looking to catch a big Flathead. Yes the 72 lbs'er I caught was Luck. I will need you guys help in guiding me to where and what I need to do. my first question is: Is there a best time for the Big Flatty's to be caught? BTW: This will be a CPR en devour.
