Channel Catfish
Sudlersville, Maryland, offers some excellent Channel Catfish opportunities in the many creeks and rivers that drain into the Chesapeake Bay. The Chester River, in particular, is a prime location. These catfish are abundant and readily take a variety of baits. The best time to target them is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Focus your efforts around structure like fallen trees, bridge pilings, and deeper holes. A local tip is to use cut bait, such as menhaden or chicken liver, fished on a bottom rig with a circle hook. The Chester River has several public boat ramps, providing easy access to the water. Be mindful of the tides, as the catfish tend to be more active during periods of moving water. Also, be prepared for some bycatch, as you may also encounter other species like white perch and striped bass.
