Saw the segment on the Big Blue that went to the Aquarium, how big a Flathead would they take? Me and my brother catch 3-4 50plus lbers every yr., yet to break the 60lb mark though.

I really don't know... it's probably based more on "need" than anything else.

If all their current flatheads up and died all at once, they'd probably take a 20-pounder.

But if the tank (Nickajack Tank) has all the flatheads it can really handle... they probably wouldn't consider anything but a real behemouth in the 80-pound-plus class.

In the case of the Big Blue, the biologist had spread the word among a few of the local hardcore cat guys that they needed a big blue to replace one that died.

Call the fellow in the video, Rob Mottice, and just ask him.

BTW, anybody who missed the previous thread, you can watch that video online here:
