spawn

does anyone know when bullhead spawn?

Brown bullheads spawn in late spring, May to June, when water temperatures reach 70 degrees. Both males and females participate in nest construction, which can be a shallow saucer on the bottom mud or sand, or among roots of aquatic plants, near the protection of stumps, rocks or downed trees. Nests can also be excavated holes or natural burrows. Spawning can also occur under sunken boards and logs, and in hollow stumps. The water depth for spawning ranges from six inches to several feet. The nests are usually around the shoreline or in coves, or in the mouth of a creek.


Hope this helps

thanks, i saw two spawning the other day. Are they still agressive?

Yes !,the spawning activity will last about two weeks depending on water temperature and weather. During spawning bullheads are very easily caught
