Yellow Bullheads spawn (breed) from May to early June. First, the male constructs a nest. It's usually a hollowed out area under some structure, such as an underwater stump. Next, the female lays between 2,000 and 5,000 eggs in the nest. The eggs will hatch in five to ten day. Both parents will guard their young until late Summer.

Shhhhh don't tell everyone but the bullheads are going to start biting in Vermont the ice is almost gone took a ride last evening and saw two bonefires where the ice has gone enough to get a hand line in the water. Its like a passage to spring around here.

When I was a kid, if it weren't for bullheads and bluegills I might not have caught any fish at all!

I've caught small bheads in a small river section on crawfish pieces. They'll swim up off the bottom and grab that bait as its drifting quickly. If there's a Trout nearby he'll beat the BHead to it though !

Thanks for joining Al! I'm thinking Yellow Bullhead but the barbels aren't clearly photographed and should be white .Still the body color looks like a Yellow Bullhead .

I only find/catch Yellow Bheads here in NE New Jersey.Josh has a photo of what we think is a Brown Bullhead but no one has posted a Black BHead yet.
