Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Roaches run by DCA....

My condo apartment overlooks Roaches Run and I watch folks fishing through my binoculars all the time. (Wave if you are one of them!). Apart from those in kayaks, canoes and john boats, the shore is fishable on both sides (road and railway line).There are also frequent waders and the water is wadeable just about all over, typically not exceeding waist height right out in the middle.

The only approach that I know of is the parking lot along the GW Parkway (across from Gravelly Point). No idea how deep it is, overall, but the southern end (toward the airport), is relatively shallow and holds good weed beds throughout the summer.

 

I'd definitely be interested in fishing RR on Saturday morning, weather depending...

Is there another approach to RR except from the parking lot along the parkway? How deep is it?

I would love to try it out this Saturday AM if anyone wants to join me. I could wade or canoe. 

Thanks

I've caught Bass (LM and SM), Catfish, Longnose Gar, Snakehead, and panfish from there, most while wading. I've even heard about someone pulling a Waleye out of there earlier this Spring.

 

It's a lot of fun, and worth checking out.

 

And here's a short video of one of the smaller bass I caught there in March:

I have seen a couple of people fishing from a canoe and another couple of waders....anyone have a thumbs up/down on this?  Looks like very good bass water.
