Thread: Tidal Potomac fishing trip

Dang, when you post you go big. Those are some NICE fish! Probably can't use leeches for bait in D.C. or there wouldn't be any politicians left.

Well there are posts and then there are “Article Worthy” posts..... this one is the latter!
I bet that smile still is on that face too.
Trip of a lifetime Jeri, Thanks for sharing it!

I used to live not far from there on the river (Quantico). Ran by it daily and always wished to fish it. In that time, my schedule was made for me. HQ Marine Corps, small arms instructor school, and the FBI academy are all on that base along with HMX1 (the president's helicopter). Lots has changed in 20 some odd years.

We were fishing 2.5" tubes on the bottom, fishing wacky style with 4.25" Case Magic Stiks, and throwing the Zipper grub on a small jig head.
What a great place to fish!
The Pentagon and Washington Monument is in some of the pics.

Good job
Those are some very nice fish!
