[cool][#0000bf]You are right. That was the skinniest bullhead I think I have ever seen. They are usually pretty efficient foragers and are generally fairly chunky. The others we caught were in better condition (see pics). However, I did catch one of the smallest bullheads I have caught at Utah Lake for many years. It hit half a minnow on a bobber head jig 3' feet below a bobber next to some reeds.[/#0000bf]

[#0000bf]For anybody who wants to have kids catch fish, Lincoln Beach is a prime area for the next while. The "mudders" (black bullheads" usually swarm into the shallow bay south of the dikes and around the dikes too. Fishing worms or cut bait on the bottom or below a bobber can sometimes be nonstop fishing when the water warms over 55. That's what it was when we left yesterday. The upcoming storms are likely to drop the temps a bit, but spring is sprung and it won't take long to warm up again.[/#0000bf]
