Hey guys, I'm getting ready to start my fishing season but im not a very experienced fisher. I generally fish at Lake Needwood but i was wondering if anyone had suggestions to fish elsewere or if you know any helpful hints about needwood on bait or specific times to fish ect.... I was thinking about going to Lake Bernard Frank? Good Idea or bad?

Thanks  :( and good luck in your own ventures.

This week its supposed to be rainy but closer to the weekend its supposed to get up to 79-80 degrees.

Welcome,

Check out the topic in the Northeast section titled Maryland's Who's Who. A lot of places are talked about there. Any questions about whats there let me know.

I have heard of some good fish coming from Needwood, but the angler I know is usually in a boat. I never hear anything good about Frank. However, depending on where you live in the County, you can venture east and fish Tridelphia and Rocky Gorge Reservoirs. Those places have some big fish and the shore access is pretty good at both places. Now, if you live on the west side of the County, I would suggest hitting the Potomac. There are plenty of areas, mostly old Locks, where you can access the River. There is also Little Seneca Lake in Germantown and Clopper Lake in Gaithersburg, both good from the bank in the spring, but once the grass fills in, it makes them a little harder to fish. Lastly, there are tons of little ponds all over the place that have bass in them. Mostly in residential neighborhoods, but if you search on Google Earth, you should be able to find some.
