This fishing report is really interesting^^, especially the sections on the tidal Potomac, which the reports seem to indicate is not doing well, especially compared to previous years. They are downright pessimistic about fish populations, especially bass.

-- Is the tidal Potomac overfished? Or is pollution pressuring fish? What can I do to help?

Ken Penrod mentioned something about this in his latest report. It seems pretty accurate to what I saw on Saturday evening. Parts of the river smelled awful....like "put your buff over your nose and don't breath" bad.
"The river is very low and very clear—and you can smell it—perhaps a sewage leak. Anglers need to carefully maneuver their boats now and I suggest floats to downstream take-outs. Waders should not allow river water on open wounds as the bacteria level is very high."
