{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Fishing Teddy Roosevelt Island

Not that it work all that well with the fly rod, but I have seen a striper caught, over the railing in the middle of the pedestrian bridge.

I've never caught any Stipers there, but I've done okay on other fish.  I've caught blue gills on a variety of topwater flies, a couple of largemouth on woolly buggers.  It's tough to find room for the fly rod there, I've been there with spinning gear and caught some largemouth on rapalas too.

I have tried fishing Teddy Roosevelt a handful of times now, and have come up empty each time. Anyone have any suggestions? My main target are stripers off the beaches - I've seen them a few times along the beaches while jogging along the island / up not eh Rte 50 bridge. I've tried throwing a few clousers, poppers, and wooly buggers, but haven't been able to get any bites. I have also tried fishing for some of the smaller fish I've seen along there (can't tell what they are) with adams flies, and a damsel tied to a popper, but haven't had any luck on those either. What does everyone fish for over there, and what do you use?
