April 4th 2010 was an incredible day of fishing on the Potomac! My fishing partner Paul Spence and I caught between 30 and 40 bass including close to 20 keepers!

There are many opinions out there surrounding this highly controversial invasive species, but love them or hate them, it looks like they're here to stay...

Giant snakehead is a native species found in Thailand. This snakehead nearly ripped the rod out of my hand; especially when fishing with the Fishbelly Helix Buzz buzzbait. What a powerful fish on topwater?! Varying the speed of your retrieval will provoke the giant snakehead to strike violently. Again, only Jean Francois Helias can put you on to catching fish like this. For more info on snakehead fishing with Francois, e-mail info@fishbelly.com to help you arrange a fishing trip.

A very nice and big snakehead :)
My new addition today... very rare fish indeed coming from a river in Myanmar and was only discovered at the beginning of this year. will probably be a protected species soon as they only come from that one river. I am very lucky to have him, I just hope he survives as he is a wild caught fish.
Snakes can still attack even without bodies. Chop the head off and run! Have to see it to believe it.
