Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Good Day Today

spent my evening as the tide started to rise doing the same thing. though was lucky to hook into a few schoolies on clousers and a 1/2 lber on a popper. Ive about had it with the snakehead nonsense! That said, going to start hitting rock creek near the outlet/swedish embassy more regularly in hopes of my first. Muddy bottom, structure and general muckery make me think snakehead. But what do I know, seeing as the only NSH I have hooked (but didn't land) was fast water and concrete walls at the tidal basin inlet.

Fantastic snakehead! Much better than the Tidal Basin today. Bounced a fly off a snakehead nose with no luck. All else was bluegill action meh.

I hit the Occoquan today.  It started off REALLY slow but picked up.

There were a few blue gill caught on top water.

Then I hooked a VERY fat largemouth that was short but went about 3 pounds.  After that I switched to my new sinking line and caught my first fish, ever, on sinking line.  It was a bruiser of a large mouth.

After those I went to the back of the Occoquan.  I saw a few fish moving around so I cast to one with a clouser minnow.  BOOM!!!  It was a nice size snakehead. 

I have managed to filet him and I intend to try him fried tonight for dinner.
