Hello Freedom Anglers.
Decided to play hooky today and head down the mighty Potomac. Arrived at Smallwood at 6 am and much to my surprise there were NO OTHER trailers on the lot....unbelievable....maybe 6 launched there all day. What a blessing.
I took my son and a friend. We started not too far from the marina with topwater. The frog is off for me this year. My buddy got 4 real quick on a popper and the topwater shut down after that. We moved around a bit and changed baits as the sun blared down all day.
All of us managed a limit , but no real big fish. Each bag would have been between 8-11 lbs for us. Caught lots of fish in a few areas. Nice to catch a few fish for a change. lots of good fun.
Here is a pic of me and my son with 4 Potomac fish. gotta savor those moments.
Didnt see much evidence of the fish kill but what we did see was just as alarming. All of the pads down thru the 6 mile area are dead. brown and dead.....anyone know why...wasn't like that last summer.
Fish On !!
