Conowingo Reservoir | Maryland’s Most Underrated Bass Fishery with 2X Champ Mickey Pfortsch

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we’re diving into one of Maryland’s most underrated yet powerhouse fisheries—the Conowingo Reservoir—with none other than MAKBF Champion Mickey Pfortsch. Last year, Mickey took the title with over 95 inches of fish, and this year, he did it again with 89.75 inches—proving this place is no fluke!Now, ask most anglers what the largest freshwater impoundment in Maryland is, and they’ll probably say Deep Creek Lake. But here’s a fun fact: Conowingo Reservoir actually spans over 5,000 acres along the mighty Susquehanna River, making it a true angler’s paradise.From hard-fighting smallmouth that crush crankbaits on rocky points, to trophy largemouth lurking in submerged timber and grass, Conowingo offers a smorgasbord of bass fishing opportunities. And if panfish are your thing? Get ready for monster bluegill, crappie, and a whole cast of overlooked heavy hitters.So grab your gear and join us as we break down Mickey’s tournament-winning tactics, talk kayak fishing strategy, and explore what makes this hidden gem one of the best bass fisheries in the Mid-Atlantic.    Please support Fishing the DMV on Patreon!!! https://patreon.com/FishingtheDMVPodcast Fishing the DMV now has a website: https://www.fishingthedmv.com/  If you are interested in being on the show or a sponsorship opportunity, please reach out to me at [email protected]  MAKBF website: https://www.makbf.com/series-info MAKBF on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MAKBFS/  Please checkout our Patreon Sponsors
