20141001-PERSONAL BEST CHANNEL CAT - caught on a dropshot rig with Carl's Rascal tipped with a gulp maggot

ON A RASCAL !!ALRIGHT !

i had a talk with Carl that morning and i told him how i was going to fish his Rascals he sent me... he said they catch "everything"... and it did ... lol

the belly on this thing was filled with what felt like sunfish

.CAUGHT DRAGGING A CRAWLER HARNESS ON A DEEP BREAK IN 20 FOW

Fine Yellow Bhead!

thanks... up to this point i had never seen one this size... put it in the live well till i lokked up the C&R Master Angler length minimum... it was 14... so this one lunker not trophy... would anyone ever mount one of these ya think?

Yellow Bullhead using Hot Dog Chunks .

Brown Bully hit a crankbait trolled near a ledge .

Most of my Bullheads are caught at night but a few come during the daytime.

Nice fish ya got there Ken !

thanks and you too... i wish i could say i was targeting him but he was caught by accident.. i wanted to go back at night and target them intentionally. i remember how fun it was as a kid.... bobbers and globs of nightcrawlers. the lake i lived on during the summers had a fish survey done and bullhead was the number 1 predator in the lake. the lake association held fishing contests throughout the year to fish for carp, small gills and bullheads to bring down their numbers. i remember them tasting pretty good at dinner. a fish that brings back some fond memories for me.

I never used bobbers for bullys .A split shot 8" up from the hook and blocking a 16th oz sliding sinker .I catch them by overflow dams.
