Smallmouth, Largemouth, Buffalo fish, Snakehead, Hickory Shad

Type: Nontidal
Region: Central
Location: Potomac River

Bit chilly this morning but the fishing was great! Since the dogwood was in full bloom, tried for Hickory Shad tossing shad darts. Sure enough..lost count after about 2 dz. Switched to catch bass and landed a nice smallmouth and lost a huge largemouth landing it. Then a 12 lb. Buffalo fish inhaled the 4" curly tail and so did the infamous 11 lb. Snakehead!

Note from Maryland DNR - Mr Chung is fishing at the top of the tidal waters on the Potomac River, the fishing area is on or just below the State line but we want all to see the fishing diversity available in their own back yard.
