How old is your boy and where do you live? I would be happy to go out sometime and help you catch some fish.

Try taking the boys here. Only takes about 30 minutes to get there from your area.

I took my granddaughter there a few years ago when she was 10 and she had a blast.

Have you ever tried fishing below Conowingo dam? Big catfish thatare very easy to catch. My schedule is a bit tight til the end of July but I'd love to meet you guys up there. BTW, the dam would be about a 45 min. trip for you.

You're not kidding about the big catfish. We we're camping at Susquehanna and went fishing while there. My daughter hooked a monster catfish. I couldn't wrap my hand around even the thinnest portion of the tail.

Yeah, I know where the dam is. I can get there a little faster than that

The two places we've been fishing are off a little pier near gunpowder cove marina and also on a boat that left from dundee creek. I'm not sure exactly where we went but it was with a coworker. His son in law captained the boat and must have thought he was the fish whisperer. Every 15 minutes we'd move. "This is the spot," he'd say. Didn't catch diddly squat in 5 hours...

Some were caught trolling and some while anchored after locating the Perch.

Great eating!

This past Sunday, we got into a lot of perch in the bay near the South River using bloodworms on a oyster bed in 22-25 feet of water.



We caught 44 fish overall in a three hour period, 38 perch (7-11+ inches), 4 undersized rockfish (11-13 inches), and 2 jumbo spot (about 8")



We kept 18 perch in the 9-11-inch range.



On Tuesday, we had a killer dinner of crab & perch fillets

Does anyone fish that lake off of Lakeside Blvd in Edgewood? I understand that people do fish there, but I didn't feel welcome the one time I went. It's not exactly a public park.

I'll be spending the weekend at the Appalachian Tenkara Jam in Hereford: talking Tenkara fly fishing, probably buying some new gear, and doing some fishing in the Gunpowder et al. with people from all over the East Coast. Weather looks decent and it should be a good time!

Seriously? The one next to the business park?

You're right, I'm sorry I was thinking of the one behind Edgewood shopping center. Lots of fish in the one by the business park, just very tight lipped.

Ok, good deal. I took my four year old there yesterday BEFORE I read your post. :-)
