Crappie
Crappie fishing near Cottage City, Maryland, can be very rewarding, especially in the quiet backwaters and creeks off the Potomac River. These panfish are abundant and relatively easy to catch, making them a great target for anglers of all skill levels. The best time to target crappie is during the spring spawn, when they move into shallow water to nest. Look for them around submerged structure like fallen trees, docks, and brush piles. Small jigs tipped with minnows are a classic and effective presentation. During the summer months, crappie tend to move deeper, so try fishing near deeper submerged structure. A local tip: The tidal nature of the Potomac can affect crappie behavior, so pay attention to water levels and current. Fishing during periods of stable water levels often produces better results. Public access is available at several parks and boat ramps along the river.
