About this water
The Susquehanna River below Conowingo Dam is one of the most productive fishing locations in Maryland, famous for its exceptional smallmouth bass and striped bass fishing. The tailrace below the dam concentrates fish year-round, and the area is renowned for trophy-class smallmouth bass. Boat access is available at the nearby ramp, and shore fishing is also productive.
