Blue Catfish
Looking for a trophy blue catfish in Hancock, Maryland? The Potomac River is your best bet. This stretch of the river is known for its healthy population of blues, with some reaching impressive sizes. The fall and winter months are particularly productive, as the catfish actively feed to prepare for the colder months. Fresh cut bait, such as gizzard shad or herring, is the go-to bait for targeting these giants. Focus on deeper holes and areas with structure, such as submerged timber or rock piles. The public boat ramp in Hancock provides easy access to the river. Be aware that the Potomac can be challenging to navigate, especially with a smaller boat, so exercise caution and be mindful of the current. Be sure to have heavy tackle, as these fish can put up a tremendous fight.
