Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} new to Fly Fishing the Tidal Basin

And prepare for the questions "what are you catching?",  "There are fish in there?",  "Do you eat them?"  Having fun with the tourists can be rewarding in it's own right. :-)

I picked up an Orvis Recon bass rod specifically for Tidal Basin fishing. Last season I found a 1/32oz jig fly with a 5" San Juan dropped behind it worked best. Fished super slow off the bottom. Take a listen to my podcast on the Tidal Basin. There are few other places with fish that big with hot dog vendors nearby, clean bathrooms, and water fountains. It is truly a gem.

I'll second Casey: better to lose flies on the back cast to the trees and shrubbery than out-of-towners. ;-)
