west virginia state record blue caught and released in Point Plesant park.
nice cat

nice fish
WV state record i shouldve said
Nice kitty. What did she hit on?
live shad 6inches,
Nice kitty.
thats awesome i live in kenova and fish for flatheads alot and blues just a few times a year
i still cant understand why we dont have huge blues like they do just a few miles down in kentucky
What did it weigh?
i myself don't know what it weighed but i think the previous record was something like 24#/25# it wasn't much compared to all the other states surrounding us the DNR in WV had some kind of protection thing on them for a number of years and if a person caught one the were supposed to be released immediately or you would be fined big they had only in the last 2 or 4 years lifted that ban/protection thing i guess here in WV they were on the endangered list of some kind
!!!!!!!OH BY THE WAY NICE CATCH MAN KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!!!
he weighed 36lbs. There not native to WV thats why DNR didnt recognize them. According to Brett Preston DNR. This small lake i caught him in is near the ohio river. All we can figure out is that either someone put him in here or when the river flooded it banks, it kinda stayed there when the water went down. We have caught several from here. Got pics of a flathead caught there last year that measured at 58 inches. That broke state record in length by 6 inches. We have hooked a few on the ohio near Robert C Byrd dam that moved our pontoon boat.
yeah Robert C Byrd...AKA ROLLER DAM is a great place to fish
i don't think there is a much better place to fish especially on a cloudy/rainy day the sauger and stripers run like crazy they like to follow the massive schools of shad and skip jack
and if blues aren't native to our waters they sure are thick above and below this pool on the Ohio the greenup pool if you go on below greenup dam its really common to catch 20 to 40# blues on a regular basis
