Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: 4 Mile Run Striper?

While I haven't seen one of that size, I've had 10-12" stripers attack hooked bluegills between the power poles upstream of the discharge in 4MR. Haven't caught a striper out of 4MR myself yet though.

Right - and otherwise, the fish looked very recently deceased. the tail was intact, the eyes were there, etc. Save for the�evisceration, it looked like it could have swum away!

Think it was a fluke or are stripers of that size fairly common in 4MR?

I've had plenty of fish die in my aquariums over my lifetime and the guts are always the first part to get eaten by other fish.

Could that be the result of a hungry snakehead?

Yeah, that would be a nice one to hook into!� I know Rob has taken stripers from 4MR, and I guess you never know what will wander in from the Potomac!

I spent a few hours fishing 4MR this afternoon. While I didn't catch any fish, I did see a striper there, although it was dead. Not sure why, but the size of it surprised me. I guess I didn't think stripers of that size could be be found there - it was easily 20". It was in about knee-deep water about 200 yards down-stream from the discharge, near the northern bank.�

Just thought I'd share.�
