Traveler2586 Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 First - caution, I am new to posting on forums! Don't yet know what a Topic Tag is but I'll do my homework and find out. I'm from Waldorf, Maryland (S.E. of Wash DC) and have been fishing the "Middle Potomac" and it's creeks on the MD side since the mid 80's. I started out like many with a 14' jonboat that I added to over the years until the free-board was almost gone to the water line; then I moved up to a 88' Tracker Tournament TX that took me places a fiberglass boat wouldn't go. I had to take about a decade off due to work travel until I hit retirement, then I dusted off my rods and purchased a used Ranger DVS185 with a 150 Merc. Now I can run the "Middle" from one launch site! I make my own Spinner, Buzz, Jigs, Shakers, and soft plastic baits; had to stop the soft plastics though, the wife ran me out of the kitchen. If anyone in the So. MD area would like to join me for a day on the river let me know, I'm looking for another retiree to buddy up with. I would also like someone to show me other locations like Anna, or waters they like. Active military get a free ride. Hooked some Snakehead out there and would like to do my part to rid the river of them. Cheers, Quote

WdyCrankbait Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 I'd like to try the James with you some day if your up for it. Sir, that would be great, but I should be moving to Louisiana in a couple of weeks for a new job. I can put you in contact with some people that know the James river if you want. Quote

Hooked some Snake head out there and would like to do my part to rid the river of them. Cheers, A year later and the offer still stands. EDIT 02/05/13 Bass Resource members who are active military, or first responders, with active ID, get a free day; they can share my tackle if their's is not available. PM me for details. Quote
