| Mallows Bay I just recently found out about Mallows Bay from a friend and have made the trip down there twice now. Fishing from shore has been lots of fun. We have caught White Perch, Yellow Perch, Catfish, Blue Gill, Crappie, Bass, and Snakeheads. The abundance of different species is awesome for shore fishing. Went down last night for a couple hours. Heres a few pics. Got 3 Bass...first one was about 20", second about 14, and by the 3rd I got a hold of a tape and it came in at 17"....also got a hold of a 28" Snakehead |

| Have never tried snakehead but there was an article in The Bay Weekly, a week or two ago by an Baltimore Chef who serves them on the menu at a restaurant in Baltimore named Alewife's, and claims Snakeheads are excellent eats. He is also a sportsman and fishes for them by bowfishing. will try to find a link to the article. "Wells, chef at Alewife in Baltimore, is an avid snakehead fisherman, which is how he came to be Maryland’s first chef to serve the fish commercially. “I’m all for these things needing to be out of water, but I’m not a fan of killing for no reason or of discarding,” says Wells. “I urge everybody to eat snakehead.” Fortunately, the unwelcome fish is so palatable it’s catching on as a delicacy in restaurants, like Alewife, that make big things of local ingredients. It may next invade home kitchens. In the year since Chef Wells first served snakehead, catching, cooking and eating it has, he says, “blown up into a cool thing.” Snakeheads, an invasive alien species introduced illegally to the Potomac River, are a nuisance that also happens to be a great fighting fish."
