Hey fly rodders. I have been out a few times already for the shad run with no luck. I know I have to doing something wrong because I haven't even gotten a bite. If anyone have any tips on lures, techniques or anything else I can do to catch some shad on the fly would really be appreciated. Thanks peeps

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Shad: Are we there yet?
Slow today. I was fishing on the Fletcher's side, upstream from the Cove from shore. Very few splashes, caught 2 shad around 9:00am, then nothing for 2 hours. Did catch what google tells me was a quillback sucker - hooked him in the face, not sure if he was trying to eat the shad fly or I just fouled him.

It looked like water was coming in by Fletcher's this morning. Not sure where that is in terms of locks, I guess it's above Lock 5.

A PM inquiry via the Canal's FB page received just now:--"For now, water will enter the canal above Great Falls as normal at Violletts lock, and continue down to just above the "Log Wall" at Mile 11.2. Water will not be in the canal below the Log Wall and Lock 5 / Inlet Lock 1 for two reasons: repairs are required at the Log Wall and a culvert is being repaired this summer near Carderock. On a related note, maintenance Division is currently clearing debris from inlet Lock 1 to begin the process of re-watering from Lock 5 to Georgetown."Might want to check with whomever is doing the clearing at Lock 1 for progress reports. There's a guide to mile markers here: http://www.candocanal.org/access.htmlMark

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} C&O Canal: There's fish but no water
The continual water doesn't go east of the pedestrian overpass at Francis Scott Key park. I haven't walked upstream from Georgetown yet.

I've been wondering the same. It is watered in between locks 6 and 7.
