Your Go-to Place to fish

[Shady]

I'm sure this has been done in the past, but we've gotten a lot of new members in the past few months so I thought this was a good post idea...

Where is your favorite or "Go-to" place to kayak fish?

I'll start up the thread with mine:

Jonas Green State Park, Severn River, Annapolis, Md

I basically learned kayak fishing here and the diversity of fish species available within a short distance of the park at different times of the year is awesome. I've caught: White Perch, Striped Bass, Bluefish, Croaker, Toadfish, Spot, Pickerel, Needlefish and Blue Crabs. I'm sure there are other types of fish swimming around near Jonas Green that I have not caught yet.

I have three depending on the time of year and my mood;

Herring Bay/Rose Haven for White Perch and Stripers

Patuxent Wetlands Park/Jug Bay for White Perch, Yellow Perch, and catfish

Piscataway Creek/Potomac for Bass and catfish

Upper reaches of Nanticoke and Choptank River. It's been a few years but my favorite go-to was always the Potomac. I spent hundreds and hundreds of hours there fishing with my Dad and had some of the best days bass fishing I've ever had. Have only been there once in a yak and that was in Oct. but was skunked. I hope to get there this spring for the shad, yellow perch and I really want to try and get a few big catfish as well as snakeheads.

I want to start fishing in the bay again as it's been years since I've done much fishing out there. I used to spend a lot of time on the rivers of the eastern shore and not even bother with the bay.
