Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} If anyone is interested in some local DC fishing, nothing too serious

Hey Matt and Jeff,
 
 
      It was nice meeting both of you on Saturday.  I have to say that even though it was not that productive, I still enjoyed the good weather and good company.   I had a nice time with Jeff and his daughter.  I think her favorate part was seeing the pair of deer walk up to the canal around 40 ft from us.  I knew there were deer around but that was a first time for me that they walked up on me like that.  I'm sorry I did not get to spend more time with Matt but I am happy you got out there and that you went back the next morning.  I was originally hoping for carp but the pole issue could not let me get to the other side where the shade and carp were.   I had to cast holding the pole on an angle to stop the line from hitting the pole but that limited my casting to around 20 ft.  I was using a dry fly and prince nymph and ended up catching a single blue gill.  Tried using the mulberry flies I tied at the last beer tie but could not find anyone to take a nibble.  I did not see any mulberry tree near by but I will keep my eyes out for them next time.
      Next time I'm thinking the tidal basin where I've had better luck and there is no other location in the country that you can fish at two national monuments and see another one in the background.  Great for photos   I will give you guys a heads up next time I go.
