Potomac River Fish Off!
I couldnt find my lucky BPS hat either this morning i was mad. And im going to pick up some swimbaits this week and try them around my local lakes and get a feel for them. What color jigs were you having best luck on i tried a black and blue strike king with a yum craw trailer and a pb&j booyah with a yum chunck trailer. got a few hits but were all short hits. Had the most hits on a rage tail lizard in watermelon red with a 3/8 oz bullet wait. Most of the water we fished was deeper so the wind was messing up my senko retrieve. No luck at all on spinner bait and crank bait i tried a rapala rattle trap no luck on that either but i didnt try it much it was the first time i used it i should of tried it more. I wanted to try the zoom super fluke in baby bass but i didnt know if it would be ok with all the wind.

Potomac River Fish Off!
Im used to shore fishing lakes sometimes rivers but if im river fishing im wading. I have been on a boat three times this year and did great but one was a resovoir and the other was a river. I fish innsbrook swift creek resovoir, pochoantas state park, james river, ed allens(chicohomany lake) and other small but good lakes around richmond that are in woods and hardly fished. Usually i catch atleast 5 in 3 hours of fishing.

It was fun watching rockville(mark) fight that atleast 40 pound catfish for 5-10 minutes on 6lb line test and bring him all the way to the boat just to watch it snap, didnt have a big enough net to land him

But he didnt poke a hole in the mouth he did it right and did it threw the bottom of the gill so it doesnt poke a hole

If you weigh it right like he did it doesnt punch a whole in the mouth so if you dont know your facts then dont trash on someone else
