I am glad to share! But now with the huricanes,the heavy rains, the cold nights and the shorter daylight( I think this is the main trigger that sends them deep) the snakeheads are for sure down pretty inactive. But this is still new to me so if any of you catch any during the Fall or Winter please post here or on my blog, www.Snakeheadfishing.net. I would be very interested to know if they bite now or not.

Well I am late to the party but September has really slowed down as far as snakeheads are concerned. Catching mostly smaller ones 20" or less. Had a fair summer with some niice 10 and one 12 pounder at 34". I prefer Aquia and Potomac Creeks, Potomac being the best spot for me the last summer but launching your boat or kayak is tough as most of it is private. Aquia is easy; exit 143 off I-95 to Washing rd, make a right go into the gated community and tell the guard at the booth you are heaed to the marina and the let you in. Go straight to the end of the road 1-1.5 miles then park over by the canoes and put your kayak in for free. If you are launching your boat pay the ramp fee and use the launch right there. I go out of there all summer with no isuses. Paddle out to the large weed beds just past the marina and start casting your top water weedless frogs! I catch 90% of all my snakeheads on the Stanley Top Water Toad it is awesome as well as some nice big bass. See you on the water! Dr D I will be guiding next Spring and summer for snakeheads so find me on my blog. www.SnakeheadFishing.net

Here are two nice ones from Potomac Creek. about 10-12 lbs each. Dr D

the fishing has been pretty good for me on Aquia Creek and Potomac Creek. A top water, pumpkin seed, weedless, popper frog is the best color I have found. Buzz baits that are bright orange are working on the outside edges of the weed beds and lily pad lines. But top water is my favorite just love that explosive hit that these guys do! Anyone have any info on the toxic or pollution levels on these fish? Or where can I read more on general pollution levels in the river? How much heavy metal crap and hormones (from those Birth Control factories up river) are in these great tasting fish? Only eating 2-3 lbs a month right now and taking my detox vitamins.
