Looking for spots along Potomac river mainly near Bethesda, I’m looking for any species but mainly bass, thank you

No-one has that place locked down! Fishing depends on the grass, tides, whether it is a leap year etc. so good luck as you will need it. Senko's, white flukes, and white spinnerbaits with double willow blades work best for my except for spring where a 1/2oz rattle trap really works.

It's a tough body of water and there's hundreds of spots. Prob is it fills up to a raging river whenever there's a huge rain storm (like what just happened today), then all the "spots" get reset/relocated however the cove's n cut off's up and down are good starting points.

Drive along river road and you will find many access points. Google maps is your friend. There is a lot of information on the Potomac on this site alone, just do a search. Pockets of slack water are generally prime spots. Currently as others mentioned the river is running high which is not the best for bass fishing but is optimal for blues and flatheads if those interest you.
