I recently received my black bullhead state record certificate for a fish I caught in February, while Plnor fishing. The fish was 14.5 inches long and weighed 1.96 pounds. Not a huge fish, but still fun without a reel. I went on the trip to specifically catch a black bullhead and I think I had a successful trip, although I really wanted to break the 2 pound mark.

Good stuff!

Isnt that we used to call a polywog? we caught a lot of them years ago.

Congratulations. Stay away from my river carpsuckers. That was a dandy bullhead.

That fish is a TANK! Congratulations.

Congratulations on the record, that is a fat one.

They are often called polliwogs or mud cats.

Once I complete my state records, mostly using other methods like Plnor fishing or fly fishing, I will go back to rod and reel fishing. So your record could be in danger then. But, you have set the carpsucker record mark very high.

Congratulations! Ive never seen one that big

Congratulations!

Man they make great Opp bait!

You might be right. Maybe I could catch a state record with a state record.

Thanks. It was a big one, but there are much bigger ones out there.

Congrats 👍
