Jonous and Chucks Flathead Trip

Jonous and Chuck recently made the trip from Indiana to Ohio to do some Flathead Fishing with me.  We fished the river two days.  First night we struggled to find any good fish but Jonous did manage to catch here very first flathead.  During the night Chuck also caught quite a few Channels but the big fish eluded us.  Second night we fished a few different spots, with still no big fish.  As the sun was getting ready to come up we decided to run down river to a spot ive caught fish before.  It wasnt long till the Blackhorse rod doubled over and we knew it was a good fish.  It was Jonous turn and she did great fighting the fish to the boat.  The fish weighed 36#s and crushed her fish from the night before. 
The big Flat made the trip a success in all our eyes!  Looking forward to next trip with these guys for we had lots of fun!

8-24 Muskingum River

Took my young cousin Gavin out saturday night on a Flathead trip.  Got anchored up about 8:00 pm in the first spot.  Soon after dark I reeled in our first fish of the night, a nice 10# channelcat.  Our next spot was down river about a mile.  Shortly after anchoring up Gavin landed a 8# flathead.  About an hour went by and my rod hammered down.  I knew it was a big fish!  After a good battle I finally got him to the boat and gavin did a great job as netman.  This fish weighed 44.11#s.  After a few pics and release my other rod went down, Gavin got to rod and reeled in another good flat at 22#s.  The night was slow after that and we headed back to the ramp at 2:30am.  Another great trip!  With the cooling water temps the bite is really starting to heat up and only gonna get better.

New Personal Best Flathead

Caught my Personal Best Flathead last Sunday night on the Muskingum River.  Fish was caught at 3:30 am on a large live Redhorse sucker.  Fish was released back to the river after a few pics. Fish weighed 50#s even.
