{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Fishing in the winter

Although I don't live in the DC area anymore, I can provide some insight on this as I used to fish 12 months out of the year when I lived up there. 

In November, you can still get Smallies and Stripers and some of the streams in the area  and within 3 hours are fishing very well.

Usually from December - March (the time I assume you are talking about), I would either fish spring creeks in the area or fish warm up days for brookies. It's definitely not the best fishing but I have had days where it got warm enough to get brookies on dry flies in January. We apply the same concept down in VB in the salt on Reds and Trout. It can, if timed well, provide some great fishing.

Hope this helps. It's definitely my least favorite time of the year but definitely not the time to pack it in.  Also for what it's worth, some people do fish 4mr in the winter. I never got into that place but a lot of people on here will recommend it as well.
