I have not been able to fish as much as I would like this year or last so no new videos as my old sport camera stopepd working! Gotta upgrade I guess, LOL!
I have made it out on the bass boat and the kayak in the Potomac Creek and Acokeet Creek areas and managed to land a few between 6- 10lbs.
Emanuel with one of his 16lb, 37″ snakeheads back in 2016 and now in 2020 he has more 16lb fish than any snakehead fisherman I know! He slays them every season and eats most of them~!
He’s been at this for a while with good results. Always has a good year with quite a few big fish in his kayak.

If you don’t have them on Youtube then set up an account for free and upload your videos, it will give a link to share on social media. Post that link here and I will approve it.

What are the most common or effective lure sizes to catch snakehead? Online, there is more information about lure types rather than lure sizing.
I like medium size 3/8 oz chatterbaits or buzz baits sometimes the 1/4 oz is okay but harder to do long casts. The bigger 1/2 oz works sometimes but not as much as the 3/8 oz. 3″-4″ frogs are my favorite, bigger than that gets you a lot of short strikes where you lose the legs of your frog. The usual or medium size scum frogs again around 3″ body, that you twitch as you retrieve are also very good. In the mid summer I like the small 2″ chartreuse scum frogs because the mimic the green tree frogs that are all over the reeds that time of year.
