ANNAPOLIS, MD — While electrofishing for blue catfish in Hunting Creek, a tributary in the Patuxent River, Maryland Department of Natural Resources workers stumbled across an odd fish cruising along in the Chesapeake watershed. Maryland DNR biologist Tim Groves identified it as a striped mullet and while it is a coastal fish, it isn’t commonly found in the Chesapeake watershed but rather down South.
According to the Maryland DNR, the striped mullet is considered to be Catadromous, meaning the adult spends a considerable amount of time in freshwater and spawns in the ocean.
