Welcome to my blog!

Hi! I’m “Catfish Andy” Brennan. For years, I have pursued trophy flathead catfish all over the United States. They are my absolute favorite kind of fish to fish for, and I’m eager to share with you everything that I’ve learned and experienced over the years.  Thank you for stopping by.  I hope you all find this entertaining and informative.  Catchabiggun!
