>>1497030Happens quite often with flatties. Blues hit like a freight train and channels will do short jabs or pecks. Flatheads will either slowly pull or not pull at all often. Unlike other species, they have a big under bite which I feel might affect how they eat baits. The youtuber Catfishandcarp has some videos on how to safely remove hooks from the gut. Gloves help a ton with this.
I've targeted them before with artificials like beefed up flipping jigs and they hit alot like a largies. This one hit a flipping jig with a piece of cutbait trailer.
