I was catching nice bullheads at Silver Lake (worth Co), put them back tho, I was huntin for the perch myself.  Kept catching them on dead minnows, both the bullheads and perch that is.  The bull heads were actually nice, beefy guys.  My Grandpa would have loved to have a pail full of em... Not sure if that's too far for you to travel, takes me an hour to get there, but it's all about the fishin...

I caught a bullhead through the ice at the Manchester city pond just the other day.  Decent fish, not huge but he had a lot of meat on him.  A guy there told me they caught lots of them there through the ice last year.  Caught him on a spoon tipped with a couple waxworms.  Thought he was a nice crappie,  oh well ;D
mmmmmmmmmmmmm. . . . . ice
