Nice work, gents. I'm looking forward to getting back up there.
Martin--I didn't see a flathead in any of your pics. The last pic looks like it might be a white cat (kinda hard to tell, though), but the rest are all channels, I think. One in there might be a blue, but I can't tell for sure without seeing the head more clearly or the anal fin straightened out. The one with the great big head in the second pic is likely a large male channel cat. Their heads get big like that when they mature. Flatheads are the only large North American catfish with a lower lip that sticks out farther than the upper lip. Plus, the tail of a flathead isn't forked like a channel or blue.
That was a nice bass, too.
