{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Nice Day at Fletchers....shad definitely here

I fished today for about an hour.  Between low tide, low water, and wind it was pretty tough.  Didn't get a bite.  Saw only one other guy fly fishing and he gave it up after about three casts and prompty caught a couple shad on a spinning rod.  It was that kinda day.

Fletechers may not rent boats tomorrow. Just a heads up for anyone thinking of heading out.  The boats were completely landlocked this afternoon with the tide, low water.

I was using your standard shad flies (2 in tandem) on my 6 wt, but on my 8 wt, I had a big bucktail streamer with a shad dart trailer (hoping for a striper/rockfish).   Shad grabbed the back fly almost all the time, only had one take the front fly.  No striper/rockfish materialized, but I've caught them this way last couple of years - always a pleasant surprise.  Full sinking lines on both rigs
