If they are the same then why does even the Oklahoma wildlife and fisheries classify them different?uploadfromtaptalk1406498367395.jpguploadfromtaptalk1406498367395.jpguploadfromtaptalk1406498367395.jpg

Genius! Read the frickin poster, it says they are both called mudcats.

Thanks for arguing though.

Already resorted to name calling. If you feel like calling it a mud cat. Then knock yourself out. There is countless sites that will tell that they are different. Maybe called the same by some people who don't know the difference. You can eat a mudcat but I'll pass. Have a good day.

But, they aren't the same fish at all. The original post is a yellow cat, or mudcat, not a flathead or Apalossa. You have to realize that???

How about everyone quit calling the fish by a nickname and call it by the scientific name so we can end this thread!

Already did for the most part, problem is most of the folks on here don't read the threads. They'll ask for what bait someone caught fish on, and it's posted in the report 2 posts up!

Guess you missed it too?

You have to realize we already covered that, read the damn thread.

I even agreed that bullhead (MUD) and Yellow/Flat/Opp/App/MUD were each from a different genus.

You have to realize that????????????????????

Bullhead is a MUD to some people.

Yellow is a MUD to some people

Both are different fish.

A tiger that ran through wet dirt is also a MUD CAT to some people, but is a totally different species - make sense?
