shovelnose catfish?

Bullheads dont get very big though..the lakes around here are loaded with them and I've never seen one over about 16"...channel cats are the monster coldwater cats or blue cats.

I am talking a coldwater monster cat you can keep in a descent size tank its whole life, channels, flats an blues outgrow anything but a pond

i wish i lived near you lot, i cant imagine just going out and catching what are my favourite fish, we had a chap here on the island who ran a garden centre that had fish for sale and he could get me things like bluegills and pumpkinseeds etc and even some north american cats but we arent allowed to import them anymore, only takes a few irrisponsible keepers to dump some and ruin the natives to make it bad for everyone
