Emory Baldwin III and his regular bow-hunting partner Franklin Shotwell were wrapping up a night of stalking northern snakehead from Baldwin’s boat along the Maryland side of the Potomac River when they decided to check the flats near Marshall Hall to see if the blue catfish had moved up into the grass, according to the Maryland Department of Natural Resources.
According to Baldwin, it was Shotwell who saw the big snakehead, but it was on his side of the boat.
After quickly aiming his compound bow, he released an arrow and was engaged in a tug of war with an 18.42-pound Maryland record.

NOT good news.
Looks like the one that crawled into my sleeping bag at Shad Landing.
They are here to stay.
We need to find a faster way to kill them all before they kill all the species we need.
Another form of Illegal Alien that is ruining America.
That poor fish has an uncanny resemblance to Hillery Clinton, even acts like her.
There is a huge market for those ugly fish that may be key to wiping them out or at least diminishing the number of them in our waters.Major seafood companies buy and sell them.
