Region: Southern
Location: Indian Creek
I caught a snakehead in Indian Creek just downstream of Powder Mill Road in Beltsville, MD. Its location was approximately 39.031125,-76.902782. I think this location may be a new record since it was so far up Indian Creek. Do you know if they have been found this far up?
DNR Response: According to our biologist there have been encounters of snakeheads in that area. We asked around other agencies and biologists from the Washington Council of Governments have sampled in that area and encountered snakeheads.
