      That's a flathead! Don't let them try and jerk your chain. You caught it and that's all that matters. Maybe your wife will believe ya the next time you ...more ask her for some gas money back so you can go fishing for a couple hours. LOL! That's a damn nice fish! You should be proud of it. I didn't know they got that big so close to Koontz Lake or I'd be giving it a try myself. I'm gonna start now this summer.
