A flathead will eat just about anything as long as it stinks and lays still on the bottom Smile Cut bait works well for this purpose. - shad, perch, etc...

Then, there are days when they won't hit anything unless it's alive and kicking...like a live blue gill or a bullhead or any other live fish that 's about 6-8 inches long.

Where legal, nothing beats a live bluegill, day in and day out.

My second choice would be shad gut, fished on a stubby-rod rig, in the rivers.
