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

Watch for high-water events in the next 6-8 weeks - it's lots of fun when the fish come up in the grass in April or May. Also, try working the bank out on the River side of the Ohio drive bridge. Ton of debris in the water, some really nasty, but you'll find smallmouth bass along the seawalls on on some of the grass beds.

I guess I've been on autopilot because I just realized I'm a 5 min walk from work to the Tidal basin. 

Watched a lot of videos (Rob Snowhite) in particular and have been reading what I can, but

it's a but overwhelming as a newbie to know what to start throwing out there.

Do folks generally just walk around the basin and cast away? Closure minnow and wooly bugger

seem to be the bugs I hear referenced the most. 

I'm not picky, I just like catching fish and being outside and casting is half the fun.
