Does anybody have any experience fishing the Potomac river below DC around Virginia? I am going after blue catfish in October with a charter service called Indian Head Charters. Supposed to be fishing for blues fifty pounds and above.  Hope to get into some, should be a good time. |

Don't have any info but sounds like a lot of fun. How much does a charter for blues cost if you don't mind me asking?

What kind of info are you looking for. I use to fish it but haven't been down in a few years.

takem, the cost of the trip was very reasonable at $300 for four of us for 8-10 hours. This includes all rods, reels, bait and licensing for three people. I had to get a Chesapeake Bay Sport Fishing license, but that came with my license for my boat for fishing the Susky flats. Midnite, I was just wondering about the chances of catching something in the fifty pound class. I haven't caught a catty that big since leaving Arizona. 62lb flathead is my biggest from the Colorado. Hoping to get into something anyway.  |

I've heard there are some big blues in the Potomac River but that's about all I know about it, the James River in Virginia is supposed to be a great Blue Cat river from what I have read on the web. good luck and let us know how you do.
