NCC-TU, TPFR, & CCA Maryland Present
The Tidal Potomac Slam– A Catch, Photo and Release Tournament
The National Capital Chapter of Trout Unlimited, The Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders and CCA Maryland's Greater Washington Chapter are proud to present the first annual Tidal Potomac Slam fishing tournament. A multi-week event, compete for great prizes and bragging rights, while helping to support Friends of Fletcher's Cove in its quest to restore the Cove and protect this unique urban fishing resource for generations to come.
Sponsored by Sweetwater Brewing, RepYourWater, District Angling, Costa Sunglasses, and Engel Coolers, the Tidal Potomac Slam is a celebration of the arrival of spring and all of the migratory species that return each year to our Nation's River! So join the fun and get in on this year's Shadness Madness!
Divisions
Fly Shore & Boat – Striped Bass, American Shad, Hickory Shad, & Wildcard
Spin Shore & Boat - Striped Bass, American Shad, Hickory Shad, & WildcardFormat and Rules
Catch, Photo, & Release
o All fish must be caught on artificial and flies only (no bait).
o All fish must be caught on the Potomac River from the Woodrow Wilson Bridge to Little Falls Spillway. Tributaries are excluded.
o There is no minimum size limit for target species but all fish caught must be submitted to iAngler the day they are caught and safely released* to qualify.
o All photo entries must be submitted to iAngler with acceptable ruler in clear view. Unclear images will be up to the judges' discretion.
o Participants can fish for both divisions, but cannot cross-pollinate (ie a spin-caught fish cannot be entered into fly category).
*Follow proper catch & release practices and handle fish with care at all times. Avoid stressing fish by bringing the fish to your boat as quickly as possible. If possible, please "keep 'em wet". If not, please ensure that your hands are wetted prior to handling a fish and do not rest a fish on the ground or surface of the boat. Photographs of fish in the water are sufficient, provided the ruler is visible and provides an accurate measurement of the fishes length. You do not need to use the iAngler App to photograph the fish. If faster, you should photograph the fish on your phone or camera and later import the photo into the iAngler app.

o Individual Category Winners (8 winners, 4-Fly, 4-Spin)*
- Largest (by length) Striped Bass, American Shad, Hickory Shad, & Wildcard (all other species caught)
