Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Gravelly Point, Monday October 13th

Right near where Gravelly Point connects to Roaches Run (where it goes under the GW Parkway. Ideally, you want to fish it on an outgoing tide, when the water is flowing from Roaches Run out through Gravelly and into the Potomac. If you're there on an incoming tide, you might have better luck fishing the Roaches Run side. Also, try to fish in low light conditions - morning and evening, or on an overcast day.

Good luck and post a report (with photos!) to let us know how you made out!

I will be in the area for a few days in early Nov, thought I would try to do some metro fly fishing while there, as its quite different from my Idaho home.  I'm not real familiar with the area, any suggestions for where in Gravelly Point I could try?

After several unsuccessful  tries, finally connected with some fish at Gravelly point.  Per what seems to be usual, caught fish on an outgoing tide around dusk.   Three stripers, 10-15 inches in a half hour.  All caught on a blue-green-gold metallic popper with trailing white buck tail hair.   A blurry (was dark) picture of the largest is attached.  It looked to be over 15 inches and fat.
