My time on the raritan this spring where shad all stack up say otherwise, caught a 33 inch flathead the same time stripes and shad were up river, as well as ~8 other flatheads that day between 3 other anglers.

Those smaller flatheads were eating 3-5 inch swimbaits.

If you think a flathead isnt going to appetize an American shad, be it a YOY one or a big juicy one from the ocean, I have to disagree.

Although I agree they should study the contents of the stomachs and get real evidence
