Location: Potomac Near the Occoquon
Attached is another picture of a large snakehead caught on 4/12/2011 on the Potomac River near the mouth of the Occoquon river. This fish was over 10lbs and was quickly killed and then given to a friend who cut it up and deep fried it. Taste just like chicken!
DNR RESPONSE: Thanks for helping us to lower the population size of this invasive species in Maryland. Drop us info on the catch with a picture that clearly shows the fish is dead every time you kill one, and you�ll get entered again fs for helping out the bass population and the Potomac River ecosystem!
