Decided to head out there today just to see if I could get lucky, got out there around 4pm and brought some frozen menhaden with me. About 30 minutes in my friend hooked a blue and pulled it in. It was an alright size, pretty fat in the middle. About 20 mins later I hooked one a little smaller and nothing else for the next 30 mins.

Nice report, and fishing is better than not, and catching is better than that!

Nice work, was thinking about going there yesterday, but figured the water would still be too cold.

Awesome catch. Looks like you got yourself a White Catfish, that's why it looks so fat. Just a bit different from a blue catfish, as they are in a different genus. A White cat is in the genus of bullhead catfishes, note the big head. They are a pretty cool fish, don't get as big as blues, but the one you caught is fairly big for a white cat. Also these are the ONLY native catfish in VA's tidal rivers.
