{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: 4 Mile Run

Not pretty? I beg to differ. Four Mile at sunrise or sunset is a beautiful, relaxing place. Plus, a unique and productive fishery is never anything to take for granted.....then again, I did lose a fly on a submerged bicycle last week. Oh well. Cheers to urban fishing and glad the Nats are playoff bound! Happy weekend hunting everyone!

Hit it yesterday evening with my brother at the bottom of the tide. Literally walked dry to within feet of the discharge. There were two other fly anglers on the water who gave me some good advice to walk upstream to where two of the power poles are literally in the middle of the river. We each got about four bass and several bluegill in about an hour and a half on poppers. This spot is the ultimate in urban fishing and so you gotta go with that in mind--it ain't pretty but its a bit of an adventure.

Hi Jim,

 

Are you roll casting out there?  I've never fished there but I seem to remember it being fairy deep in parts right by the outfall.  Also, are you having your best luck on the North or South bank?  Thanks for sharing this ---

It has been a weekend of chasing bass.  My location of choice was 4 Mile Run from the water treatment down to the small cut.  I tossed medium and small blue poppers along the shore down one side and up the other.  I was pleasantly surprised at how close to the shore some very large bass were hiding is really skinny water.  In the three days, I have caught around 50 or so bass. Gotta hit the run again before the weekend ends.
