No dumb questions on this board icefool, just plain questions. The mud cat and bull head refer to the black bullhead catfish, common throughout Utah. That and channel catfish are the only two catfish species found in the state. Both are introduced exotics, but great sportfish. There is also a yellow bullhead back east, but they do not occur in Utah. Black bullheads make great eating. Some people refer to the mottled sculpin as bullhead, but it is a misnomer. They are the ugly little suckers found in the local trout streams and are often used as bait.
