Where To Find Flathead Catfish And What Rigs to Use To Catch Them

Flathead catfish have been my favorite species of catfish to catch for years. Here are some of the techniques and catfish rigs that I use to find them and catch them.

This is the best demo I’ve seen short and sweet and quality vid

[@jonathanmoore6107]

This deserves a damn award. Amazing video.

[@gregg9768]

This is the best video explaining how to fish for flatheads based on the position of their eyes an how their jaw is built. Your video is also short and concise. I greatly appreciate g to he info.

[@RAND0MM]

i showed this to my "little Brother". You may be wondering why i quoted that. My Best friend Has a son who love fishing i love fishing 2. So we drove him to lake Pleasant AZ, We rented a boat for a way, And he caught his first ever flathead catfish....It was around 30 pounds. Thanks so much for this video Dude, You explained this amazing.

[@cbm2430]

This is hands down your best video. Everyone is caught up with the gear and looking the part. An easy setup with the proper bait is a great start but understanding your target species is monumental. I think you really helped a lot of fishermen and women with this video. Great job 👍

[@benjaminhurmx]

Wow Chris what an amazing explanation! What truly unique way to provide a visual sense of everything. I don’t know how I had missed this one. Thank you !

[@mosfetmoshpit6600]

[@claytoncampbell3777]

Than=t was an excellent video. Bee targeting flatheads for two decades and everything you said is exactly true about targeting flatheads on structure. This video really allowed me to put two and two together.

[@alexdrex12]

[@Itzhoss]

This is the best demonstration I've seen on explaining this. My guess was wrong on the 2 spots where they would set. Thank you Kris for this demonstration. I had never really thought about the under bite on the shovel heads before. Awesome video and I will definitely be recommending this to people

[@herbertd.fischer2789]

Kris you make it look easy In Northwest Texas I remember a Small creek that certain times of the year We caught those big yellow cats like that . That's where I kinda respected what you said about releasing those huge & yes sir I'm talking 95lbers & up back into the water . Although that particular ranch has since sold to a new owner & I haven't fished that creek in 20 yrs The memories of those huge cats & the times I shared with the older generation are Priceless & I miss those guys Tight lines my good friend .

[@CatfishingwithCos]
