{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Best wading/bank fishing for smallmouth near NW?

Rock Creek has smallies. They aren't beasts but are good fun on a light rod. Start in Cleveland Park and poke around all the way down to the Potomac in Georgetown.

I'll echo Owen's points.
Upriver SMB fishing has been subpar for at least 3 years. 

Both books are good references. Steve Moore's book especially for his advice concerning river levels and when & where it's safest to wade.

I'll add that riding a bike on the C&O Canal Towpath is a great way to scout out the fishing in the river and where it has water in it, the C&O Canal. 

Also, I suggest taking a look at some of the publications and maps from the Interstate Commission on the Potomac River Basin, https://www.potomacriver.org/
