{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: 4MR questions

This is a tough time of year -- I was there a couple of weekends back on a falling tide and caught a smattering of small sunfish, but not much else (though tiny shad were popping all over the place).  Also, when you've been there a million times and know where all the fish tend to hang out, including schools of cyprinids and killifish, you can pretty much tell right away when there are fish in there or not.  Things should be better as the temps keep cooling, so don't give up on it.  

I've had more fun and success the last couple of weekends kick seining stream fish on my home stream -- tremendous diversity of species, with yellow bullhead juveniles finally appearing.  Of course, I'm not suggesting you take up microfishing....and I would certainly never spend hours trying to catch creek chubs on a #22 brassie under a #16 bivisible....
