Flathead Catfish
If you're after flathead catfish near Berlin, Maryland, your best bet is to target the deeper sections of the larger rivers and creeks that flow into the coastal bays. Though not as abundant as channel catfish, flatheads are present and can reach impressive sizes. The warmer months, from late spring through early fall, are the most productive times to fish for them. Focus on areas with significant structure, such as fallen trees, rock piles, and deep holes. Live bait, like bluegills or bullheads, is the preferred choice for targeting flatheads. Be prepared for a strong fight, as these fish are powerful. A local tip: night fishing can be particularly effective, as flatheads are primarily nocturnal predators. Remember to check local regulations regarding bait restrictions and size limits. While access points may be limited, exploring the Pocomoke River offers the best chance at landing a flathead in this region.
