Blue Catfish
The Nanticoke River near Mardela Springs is quickly becoming known for its Blue Catfish population. These invasive giants are thriving in the brackish waters, offering anglers a unique opportunity to catch trophy-sized fish. The best time to target them is from late spring through fall, with the peak season being during the warmer months. Focus on areas with deep channels, structure, and current breaks. Cut bait, such as gizzard shad or menhaden, is the most effective bait. Use a heavy rod and reel, as these fish can put up a serious fight. Several boat ramps along the Nanticoke provide access, but be aware of tidal currents and shallow areas. These fish are impacting the ecosystem so check local guidelines regarding harvest.
