1/13

It's been a couple days, but Sunday evening I did a little flathead fishing with Romo and James to try to attempt the impossible, the January Flathead. The condition of the river went from low and 40 degrees to 5k cfs and almost 50 degrees in about 12 hours, basically a big warm front came through with an inch of warm rain, and it got the Flatheads moving just enough to be able to stick a few. We fished only 2-3 hours around dusk and between the 3 of us we got 3 Flatheads and a channel, nothing of any size, but mission accomplished. Here they are. Chunks of Bluegills did the damage. From here, where do we go with dismal winter fishing? Friday Ken Romo and myself plan on Tog fishing off the coast of MD/VA, water temps plummeted over the recent days cold weather and I believe going south is the right move. Im still on a quest for a 10lb+ Tog and hopefully I can make it happen come Friday. After that, Ice Fishing awaits. Can't believe Im posting Flathead Pics and talking about how close to ice season we are in the same post. Anyways, good luck to anyone still fishing, spring will be here before we know it.

  3. Its the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia, we fish the nontidal section above the Fairmount Dam. Winter is the wrong time to try it, the warmer months are the times to catch the big cats.
