Flathead Catfish
For flathead catfish near Barclay, Maryland, the tidal rivers that feed into the Chesapeake Bay, such as the Sassafras River, are your best bet. Flatheads are ambush predators, so focus your efforts on areas with significant structure, such as submerged logs, rock piles, and bridge pilings. They thrive in these areas, especially where there's a good current. The prime time for flathead fishing is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, with nighttime being particularly productive. Live bait is key for targeting flatheads; bluegills or bullheads are excellent choices. A local tip: fish the outgoing tide, as this often concentrates baitfish and draws in the flatheads. When fishing the Sassafras, be mindful of boat traffic, especially on weekends. Strong line and heavy tackle are essential when targeting these powerful fish.
