Blue Catfish
The Potomac River near Glen Echo, Maryland, is home to a thriving population of blue catfish. These whiskered giants offer a thrilling fishing experience. The best time to target them is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, when they are actively feeding. Focus your efforts on deeper holes, channel edges, and areas with structure such as submerged logs or rocks. Cut bait, such as gizzard shad or menhaden, is a highly effective bait choice. A practical local tip is to fish during periods of low light, such as dawn or dusk, as blue catfish tend to be more active at night. The Little Falls Branch area provides good access. Be prepared for a battle, as blue catfish in the Potomac can reach impressive sizes.
