Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} April 21 water conditions?

Nice American!  I have only caught a handful of striper there, but have had some success.  I always bring one rod with a large half and half or deceiver dropped from a shad fly (So I don't get too bored if not striper takes) and throw it a decent bit.  It seems rather random with a fly rod as I've caught them in shallows, near rocks, deep, in the seam, out of the seam.  Im sure there are solid jogging spots, but for me, I just put in the leg work and eventually get one.  Last time out, I kept catching shad on the deceiver and pulled the lone striper on a bright pink shad fly...Random.  

As I am reading this, I realize there isn't too much help here except just put in the leg work and one will come eventually.

Last night we hit some good Americans. Rachel caught this one right at dusk as the storm came over the ridge. We high tailed it in and barely got the raft into the subi when the storm hit hard. It was fun. 

I'm in the blue baby Otter BRO (old Blue Ridge Outfitter) boat. say hi! 

I have yet to catch a striper at FC, schoolie or otherwise. Where is the "sure to hook a schoolie" spot on the map? Thanks for keeping entertained this Friday afternoon. Cube is killing me today.

One to two bites per cast for me right now. I can see hickory shad chasing fly to the rocks. Call in sick with shad flu.
