JUG FISHING

[KYBOY]

I fish Tville for them. Excellent lake for cats & can usually catch all you want. 99% of the time I catch & release. Great fun!!

I keep eaters up to about 10-15 pounds for channels and blues when Im fishing for food. I release almost all flatheads regardless of size. Just a personal choice but I release all fish over 15 pounds.. I catch all I need(and I eat a lot) under that size so releasing the big ones dosnt hurt me a bit

I’m not releasing any flatheads, like throwing away a ribeye ha!

my favorite fish in the world to catch, including salt-water. Ive always had a thing for em'.. I chase them religiously...

Same. They get huge, fight like hell, and the small ones are one of the best eating fish out there if you ask me. Really nothing not to like about them IMO.

The big ones ain’t bad ha.

Wasn't on a jug but caught this little channel cat while killing time waiting for a Dr appointment. Using trout bait and ultralight tackle. Wasn't big but had a great time winding it in on 2lb test.

That's a size 13 shoe, I didn't have anything to measure with and this lake they gotta be 15 inches to keep I figured it was close but three it back anyway

Bet this would be a hella flathead bait.

I seen an article where a guy caught a 66lb flat on a 12" trout in PA, new state record. Idk if it was a lure or real trout. Id imagine it b hard to keep a live trout alive??

most folks would be amazed at how big of a bait a flathead can swallow,easily...A 20 pound flathead will slurp down a 12" sucker no problem. A 7" bluegill is just a snack to a decent flathead. My personal favorite is a big redhorse sucker, but bullheads and big green sunfish are great too. I also love big creek chubs but they are a little on the delicate side compared to other baits..Not as tough

Yessir. I have a hard time convincing my limb lining buddies. I've had a 4 pound drum eat by a 12 pounder.
My favorite bait is a big yella belly (bullhead.) About 14" if I have my choice.
Clip the horns off the side, trim the tail, and little dude will stay pissed off and squirmin until he gets eaten.
I generally use hand sized bluegill because they're easy to get, but always wish I had some bigger bait. I love them flatheads

Same here. I use a lot of gills and sundad's because they are easy to get. Since a few of the local creeks were rerouted due to construction suckers and bullheads are harder for me to get. I use to get a lot seining, but last few years they have been harder to get. I need to cast net more I guess

I always loved watching jugs bounce up and down.
