Fresh off my astounding success at duping some poor catfish in a farm
pond, I'm setting my sights on a more fair fight. In the next couple weeks, there's a better than even chance I'll have an opportunity to fish the Pocomoke River (MD eastern shore). Except for the right rod & line, I have virtually nothing I'll need for this. For those not familiar with the Pocomoke, here's an advance TR. The Pocomoke is a beautiful, scenic, tanin brown river that actually has areas of cyprus swamp in places. For most of its length, it is tidal, but nonetheless flows (both ways) along a winding bed through the flat forests near Snow Hill & Pocomoke, MD. In places, it widens to include shallow lily pad areas along the shoreline. Although techically brackish, it's more fresh than salt in the upper reaches where I'll be. I'll be in a stable kayak, and probably trying to work the edges of the weeds and the dropoffs into the channel bed. I would expect, if I were a better fisherman, to catch almost anything from striped to largemouth bass, pike, white perch, yellow perch, and yes, catfish. I will be checking out various bass fishing sites for fly recommendations, and I would expect the usual Clousers, Lefty's Deceivers, etc. will get me in the right ballpark; but if anyone else would want to offer words of wisdom, I'm all ears. |
