Blue Catfish
Havre de Grace is a blue catfish hotspot in the upper Chesapeake Bay region. The Susquehanna River, flowing into the bay, is teeming with these whiskered giants. The best time to target them is generally from late spring through fall. They often move into the river from the bay in search of spawning grounds or cooler water. For bank access, try fishing near the Route 40 bridge or the Susquehanna State Park shoreline. Boat anglers can launch from the Lapidum Boat Ramp. Cut bait, such as gizzard shad or menhaden, is the go-to bait for blues in this area. A heavy rod and reel are essential, as these fish can pull hard. Local anglers often have success fishing deeper holes and channels, especially during periods of strong current. Be prepared for a fight, as blue catfish in the Susquehanna can reach trophy sizes exceeding 50 pounds.
