{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Memorial Day Morning on C&O Canal

Yeah, John, it's my lazy spot too when I don't feel like driving to Harpers or farther up the big river. I saw that one goldfish a little over a week ago.  When a man jogging with his two daughters approached me on my way out, he asked, "Are there fish here?" (some days I just cannot believe how disconnected folks are from the natural world, but at least this guy was outdoors with his kids) I told him, "Sure, and if you keep moving up about another 50 yards you'll see a largish goldfish..." At that, his daughters took off to find it and started calling, "Daddy! Daddy, look! ..." When my daughters were young, on Sundays that my wife worked a part time gig, I would take them to lunch and then a ride in the car. At the time we lived in PA's Lehigh Valley and nearly every one of those Sunday rides in the car also involved scouting trout water. ;-)  Now I do it on my own, the wife hates "pointless" rides in the car. Which sort of brings me back to my asking that guy on the towpath, "So what's stopping you?"  ;-)

That has been my lazy go to spot (when I don't feel like going all the way to Gravelly or 4MR) since it warmed up.
