Fished out of Fletchers on Saturday. Over four hours on the water (0700-1130). Motored (electric trolling motor and battery in a Fletcher's boat) up to Chain Bridge and fished there awhile. Then drifted back down stopping to fish the most likely looking spots on both sides of the river. Fished deep with 9wt full sink (clousers) and shallow with 6wt floating (poppers). Even brought along one of my bait casting rigs (yes, I sometimes use hardware, but I can stop at any time, honest) and threw spinner and crank baits.
Didn't catch a damn thing.
Very disappointing. Sunny, hot, and humid with nothing more to show than a mild case of dehydration and a sunburn. Looks like it's back to Burke Lake for bluegills to regain some semblance of my fishing manhood.

Good morning,Looks like the Little Falls gage will be hovering just below 3.5' this weekend and was thinking about doing a little fishing.Has there been any action in the vicinity of Chain Bridge (fish from shore) or Riverbend State Park (wade fish)?Thanks,Jim
