[QUOTE="jdd5p, post: 166636, member: 765"] I'd say they definitely fight harder than channels. I've never caught a flathead over about 15 lbs but at that size I'd say pound for pound flatheads fight just a little harder. I'll have to work on getting a 50 lb flathead to know for sure :LOL2: . I think flatheads probably run faster but blues are stronger. Sometimes they will just hold to the bottom and will not come up. It took about 25-30 mins to land the bigger one. It was in 25 feet of water with pretty strong current so that magnified things. I got him all the way to the boat thinking he was tired out. He took one look at the net and headed right back down and pulled about 50 yards of line out, and I was back to square one. I had the drag set pretty tight too. Come on down and I'll take you out. The blue bite is great from about now until march. The colder the better (as long as the ramp isn't frozen over). [/QUOTE]
