Wading on the rocks on the upper Occoquan is trespassing. We have spoken with the game warden on multiple occasions back there. We go a warning the first time because we tied our boat to the rocks. He busted a couple of guys that walked up from the foot bridge and were fishing up on the rocks toward the dam.

Upper Occoquan as in, above the footbridge in the old town, or upper as in the reservoir? If the former, then I'm pretty sure there are lots off no trespassing signs up there since it is on the water authority's property. You used to be able to fish those rocks as well as the (stunningly beautiful) stretch between there and the reservoir dam, but after 9-11 it was made off limits since a huge main water supply line runs the whole length above ground. Too bad, there's some awesome water up there.Did you hear what the ticket was written for? Trespassing?Dan Davala

It is confusing literature. According to NPS there is no swimming or wading in the potomac. However, there seems to be an exception for fisherman as long as they are wearing some sort of flotation device.--
