Madness on the Marshyhope: Blue Catfish Tournament & Festival
November 5, 2022
The Town of Federalsburg, Federalsburg Lions Club, Federalsburg VFW and Caroline County Parks and Recreation have teamed up to host Madness on the Marshyhope Blue Catfish Tournament and Festival! This family-friendly event will also include music, food trucks and educational presentations from DNR while the anglers fish! You won’t want to miss the After Party Fish Fry at the VFW starting at 5:30pm, which will have music, a bonfire, and a good time for all!
The blue catfish is an invasive species that is causing havoc in our rivers with our native species. The tournament will help bring awareness to area anglers and residents about the dangers the blue catfish pose to our beloved crabs, rockfish and sturgeon. Please support this all day festival and tournament!
