DC Report 03/09/2013

met ComeOnFish at Jones Point Park at 8am Saturday morning for a quick trip. I had afternoon plans(DC United home opener!) so I was unable to make it to the MKF m&g. We fished the bridge looking for stripers but they were all catfish stacked up. I caught a few small ones on a Hopkins spoon and then decided to cut some bait to see if there were any larger ones. There were a few but it was pretty slow for catfish fishing so we decided to troll up the river to blue plains to see if anything was happening up there. There were a lot of mud shad (gizzard shad) in the warmer clear water but no stripers or bass. I cut some fresh shad to see if there were any catfish around. There were a few and the action was pretty steady until the current and breezed died. We paddled back to the bridge and found a few more catfish before heading out of there. It was a nice day on the water!

I hope they do something about that dock, it is way too high!

Here's some pictures, most fish were smaller than kw size so they were just released boat-side:

Nice......water looked OK there. I noticed that as I crossed 14th St Bridge today. I like when they hit the artificial lure!


Time to go fishin' again!

Only the little ones would hit the spoon, but still fun! The water was typical Potomac to me, poor visibility but not quite muddy.
