Monocacy Bass
Type: Freshwater
Region: Central
Location: Monocacy River
I fished the Monocacy River near Frederick, MD on 5/19. Water temp is now in the low 60s and bass are beginning to make beds for the upcoming spawn. I caught several nice bass on a jig around brush piles. Most of the larger bass had torn up tails indicating they are fanning beds.

Bush River White Catfish
Type: Tidal
Region: North Central
Location: Bush River
My 13 tear old son Dan caught and released this fish on a live White Perch in the Bush River in Perryman on 5/18/13. It weighed 4.5 lbs. Is it a Channel or Bullhead Catfish? Did he release a potential state record?
DNR Response: John, our expert say’s it’s a native White Catfish, our benchmark for a state record white is 7lbs.
