{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Tidal Basin

Yeah,  I like the feather game changers the best,  mine have about 5 spines +  1/0 main body hook and sometimes a small circle stinger on the tail.  I have been using the fish spines to articulate them,  and then add extra lead on the water to get it to fall horizontally like a fluke.  Got everything to tie them at district angling.

I try to hit the basin every morning around 640 - 830 before work,  longer if they are biting.  I would always welcome company.  Normally just me and the German tourist out that early.   I haven't had much luck on the Jefferson/Ohio drive side since May.  The crap water clarity is not helping much either.   it tends to be clearer by MLK.

Gamechanger...those are those articulated minnow-like flies? 

I need to expand my fishing sites down at the basin...I have historically only gone to the area from Jeffereson along the wall to the Ohio Drive bridges on either side.  

Nice haul.  

Cheers

Any ideas how the waters clearing up down there? Assuming it's based on the tides, but a ballpark fishable or not would be nice.

Thanks,
