Snakehead fishing tomorrow if anyone wants to come join 2024


fishing user avatarThai reply : 

So lately I found a new technique that has produced very well for me in this period when the snakeheads are either going deeper or burying themselves in the muck and becoming less active. Yesterday i landed 6  the biggest being 8lbs and today I landed two within half an hour with one monster 12lber. If anyone wants to meet up with me in the Alexandria/Mount Vernon area to learn a new technique let me know! It only works on a low tide so tomorrow evening around 6 is when i'll be targeting them but I'll be bass fishing throughout the day if anyones interested in that too.


fishing user avatarDan: reply : 

I'm in! Are you going to be fishing earlier? It would be easier for me to come down that way earlier in the day to beat the rush hour. What should I bring?


fishing user avatarThai reply : 

PM'd


fishing user avatarsoccplayer07 reply : 

I knew Dan would jump on that offer!!! I probably be out fishing there tonight. good luck guys.


fishing user avatarA.Do? reply : 

i would have been down if I knew about this earlier...oh well. Post lots of pix!


fishing user avatarNewAngler reply : 

pictures are a must. 6 in one trip, thats unheard of. until now.


fishing user avatarDan: reply : 

Of course I'm jumping on it!! If someone offered a trip for musky I'd jump on that too! I MUST cross this species off of my "Fish-to-catch" list.

I'm going to bring a cooler and some ice.


fishing user avatarThai reply : 

Dan, Ive got a jon boat with trolling motor we can use in the creek, only think is we gotta push the trailer down to the water which is like 50 yards or so unless you got a tow hitch lol


fishing user avatarDan: reply : 

nope, no tow hitch but I'll stretch before I head down there.


fishing user avatarsoccplayer07 reply :

fishing user avatarslider head reply : 

Reading this thread got me to thinking. So I googled snakeheads-potomac. I found this article from the Post on some guys that run a snakehead guide service.

Good luck tonight! Man I wish I could go! Please post pics!


fishing user avatarNewAngler reply :

I've been told they are something like Tilapia but I'll let you know how I think they taste if we catch some.


fishing user avatarSlip Gun reply : 

Ahhh I wish I was going haha let me know how it goes! Im itchin for a way to finally catch those devils.  >:(


fishing user avatarslomoe reply : 

Good luck guys


fishing user avatarThai reply : 

Well just got back, missed the hookset on two very decent snakes before dan arrived, but the tide was working against us when Dan got here so we went and did some bass fishing. Between Dan, a buddy and myself we slammed maybe 25 bass on topwater with our share of missed hooksets within an hour and a half, overall a very exciting day for us


fishing user avatarSlip Gun reply : 

25?! d**n, was this near Dogue creek by any chance? Much better then we did last night that's for sure :/


fishing user avatarDan: reply : 

Thanks for having me Thai. That was a good day of bass fishing. We'll take another shot at those snakeheads sometime. It's not like they're going anywhere  ::)

David, we were not in Dogue Creek. We were in the creek where you and I met up and fished. (the one where we met, not Pohick)


fishing user avatarSlip Gun reply : 

Aaaahhh nice, next time if you guys want another fishing partner ;) ;)

Who else is itching for saturday!!  :D


fishing user avatarThai reply : 

Im super stoked for Sat, every time i fish down there i only catch dinky fish hopefully with a good guide (Dan lol) we can slam some hogs

and if things go well weather wise im down for going out again on sunday to get some SH's and hit up the bass flats


fishing user avatarDan: reply : 

The place we are going definitely has some nice fish, hopefully we can get them to bite.

nah, it would be too much of a hassle to store and transport them. I'll just bring a cooler with ice again next time we try to catch them.

Thanks for the offer though.


fishing user avatarsoccplayer07 reply : 

pa what time are you going out today? I should be out there around 4 or so.


fishing user avatarThai reply : 

I think I saw you out there today were you fishing near mount vernon estates with another buddy? if so the other boat out there was me

got a couple nice 3+ bass out there and a 10+ snakehead in the creek, had another hit my frog 4 times before calling it quits and moving on

check out the size of its head in the second picture

The day I'm not up for fishing is a sad day indeed :P


fishing user avatarThai reply :

fishing user avatardauberangler reply :

fishing user avatarRockvilleMDAngler reply :
