  • 9/2/13 Labor day @ the Potomac River

    On Labor Day I went fishing with a friend that just got started kayak fishing couple of months ago. I caught around 20 fish. 4 of my fish around 14” -15” and the rest was dinks. I caught most of my fish with fluke w/ 1/8 oz weighted hook and jig w/craw. I let my lure bounce around the bottom. I’m not sure how many fish my buddy got but he caught himself a Nice 17” on a fluke.









    The 17” smallie that my buddy caught

        Good looking fish there Berto!
        Unfortunately, instead of fishing yesterday I was fixing a plumbing leak at my hot water tank.....

                Nice trip. The 17 is a great fish. Especially in 2013, the year of the dinks.

                  Nice pics !! That 17'' er is a nice one . How was the grass ? Haven't hit that section since owning a yak ( plenty of times wading ) and was thinking about checking it out maybe tomorrow or this weekend depending on the weather. Just drove down to Algonkian . Looks nice and clean. Going either there or Riverbend later today. Thanks for the report !

                      Thanks for the info Berto. Went to Algonkian yesterday and the grass was bad there. Caught a few dinks but fishing was tough . Same method... smoke fluke with a screw on bullet weight 1/8 oz . Still might hit Riverbend tomorrow.
