Flathead Catfishing with JUMBO LIVE Bullheads!!! (Big Fish)

  • If you ask me, the best bait for flatheads is a lively bait. One that's gonna keep kickin' on the hook for hours and hours. Lots of times, that means bullheads. They're too mean to give up and lay on the bottom, and that's what pulls those big cats on in!
