Potomac River

[TOXIC]

Decision process for yesterday….Where do we want to fish? First choice is the Rappahonock River but due to recent rains, it’s like Yoo-Hoo right now.  Second choice was a new lake for us, a 500 acre electric only lake that my buddy felt confident his 4 lithium batteries could handle but due to the fact it’s somewhat primitive and we have not seen the ramp, we opted out of that.  Final choice was the Potomac.  Always good fish coming out of the river but the key is staying current on their location, being able to run around to find them and having good tides.  All of which were in question when we launched.  We found the morning bite to be good, a lot of small fish due to the fact we haven’t put our time in on the water.  It was a fair day and we caught Bass, Perch, Catfish and had a blast catching Northern Snakeheads.  Caught them on poppers and chatterbaits mostly and they ranged from 6-9lbs.  Short day for me as I had to get home and help my wife put together a tailgate party sponsored by the non-profit she is the Executive Director of.  Twighlight Polo at Great Meadows.

?? Not a high brow event for this part of the country. ? We live in the middle of Virginia’s equestrian industry.  Great Meadow in addition to hosting their most famous event the “Gold Cup” steeplechase, has a summer season of Friday night show jumpers and Saturday night twilight polo. My 24 year old daughter has been an equestrian since she was 4 and now manages a boarding barn and has 7 horses of her own so we have been involved for a number of years.
