Channel Catfish
If you're after channel catfish near Cottage City, Maryland, the tidal Potomac River and its tributaries are your go-to spots. These whiskered giants thrive in the brackish waters and offer year-round fishing opportunities, though the warmer months tend to be most productive. Focus your efforts around deeper holes, channel edges, and areas with structure like submerged timber or rock piles. Stinkbaits, cut bait, and chicken livers are all popular and effective baits. Night fishing can be particularly productive, as catfish are often more active under the cover of darkness. A local tip: Use a heavier weight to hold your bait in place, as the tidal currents can be strong. Also, be prepared for a fight; these catfish can grow to impressive sizes. Several public access points and boat ramps provide easy access to the river. Remember to check Maryland DNR regulations for size and creel limits.
