Potomac River Off of Mallows Bay

Type: Tidal
Region: Southern
Location: Mallows Bay

On Wednesday 14th I fished the Potomac River off Mallows Bay. I fished back up in the creek too. The bay, the burning basin and the creeks are all weed choked and mostly unfishable.

Targeting and catching:

19 blue catfish 18�-26�, plus a bonus 9� channel catfish

Baits: 3/8 & 1/2oz chatter baits dressed w/4� white paddle tail plastics. 1/4 & 3/8� VMC jig w/gulp 3� smelt minnow.

The blue catfish are thick there, if the largemouth bass or snakehead bite is slow at Mallows, I always turn to the river. The catfish unfortunately never fail to disappoint.
