{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} suggestions for inshore/onshore saltwater fly fishing within 3 hours from DC?

Hi Folks,

I've been in the area for a few years now, but haven't really had a chance to do any saltwater fishing.  I've been itching to sample the on-shore/near-shore saltwater options in the area lately, but I have very little idea where to start.

I would be equally interested in the ocean or the bay.  I prefer wading and beach casting, but I also have a kayak if that's what it will take to access some decent water.  I'm not looking for any secret spots - just places where I can hope to find a firm bottom, fishy conditions, and room to cast. 

Time and fuel are at a premium, so I'll be focusing within 3 (or better yet, 2) hours of the DC area.  I'm not real particular about the target fish, but I would prefer that they are more than 10" long..

Would anybody be willing to point me in the right direction?  My under-informed guesses would be 1) the calvert cliffs area, 2) the Lewes/Rehoboth beach area (what about the Great Marsh area, just N of Lewes?), 3) Wye island area?  Something closer?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,

Eric
