Channel Catfish
Delmar offers some solid channel catfish action for anglers willing to explore the local waterways. The Nanticoke River, a short drive west, is a reliable spot for catfish. These whiskered predators are opportunistic feeders, making them relatively easy to target. The best times to fish for channel cats are during the warmer months, particularly from late spring through early fall. Focus your efforts around structure like fallen trees, bridge pilings, and deep holes. For a local tip, try using stink baits or cut bait on a Carolina rig. Night fishing can also be very productive. Be aware of the strong currents in the Nanticoke River, particularly after heavy rains. The channel catfish in this area are known for their good size, with some fish reaching well over 10 pounds. Many local anglers also fish for them in the Marshyhope Creek, a tributary of the Nanticoke, particularly at night.
