Anglers are finding good fishing for Chesapeake Channa (northern snakehead) in many of the Chesapeake’s tidal rivers. The Conowingo Dam pool is always a good place to find them since it is a dead end to their travels. The Bush and Gunpowder rivers are favorites in the upper Bay; the Dorchester back waters and the Nanticoke River are Eastern Shore favorites, and the tidal creeks of the Potomac and Patuxent offer good fishing on the western shore. At the Ocean City Inlet and Route 50 Bridge area, bluefish and striped bass are being caught by casting soft plastic jigs or drifting cut bait. |
