Potomac River Fishing Reports

A long fish from skinny water! But it measured over 20"s and was a PB Smallie for John. Great day with great clients!  It's not too late to get out, there's plenty of time to get your fish on!

Another father and son duo. Both boated their PB Smallies coming in at 18.50"s. The sons fish is an old warrior, you can tell by the body shape and the wounds and scars. Book your "No Worries " trip today. Let us take care of all of the details!

More Tackleboxes less Xboxes! Take a kid fishing, make some memories! Funny thing is he excepted to catch 5 fish for a good day. He boated 20! 304 283 0815 www.wegofish.com

When you're client tells you that want to break their PB. The fish must have heard him! He's a Texas guy and they don't have a ton of Smallie action down there. We're still booking September is close at hand which means hungry fish trying to pack on the pounds for the winter lull! 304 283 0815 www.wegofish.com

Long time Fly Fishing Client Joel booked us for a last minute solo angler trip. It was a beautiful day and everything felt right about fishing the Shenandoah River. I had been wanting to get Joel out on a stretch that he had only fished once in the 7 or 8 years he's been fishing with me. The day started a little slow but with a few fly changes we began to get into some Smallmouth Bass. When we hoped into the first ledge system the first cast landed a 20.50" 4lb post spawn Smallmouth Bass. Joel's first 20 with me. The water was skinny in the ledges and he did exactly what any seasoned Fly Guy could do to keep the fish off a life time from running into rocks to break him off. With in an hour he had another 20" Shenandoah Smallie in the boat! our was an epic day! 

Took my Partner in Slime and another friend down the Shenandoah for a fun trip a bus man's holiday if you will. It was a beautiful day and we boated over 80 fish. The largest came out before lunch time. An area between ledges that we had thrown to many times with flukes, swimbaits and tubes. We pulled a quite a few fish out of this hole but nothing to write home about. I switched up baits putting the tube away and tying on a new to me Deps Cover Scat. Wham Bam Thank you ma'am 21"s and 5lbs of Tug. We had lots of worthy fish and numbers ta boot!

The Weather Forecast was calling for some rain in the morning. And it did just that starting out light with a few periods of heavier precipitation. the water was stained but not heavy. The game plan was flukes for running and gunning and tubes for when we were set up and stationary. Even though we had rain which eventually turned to a sunny day, we made it happen. And boated more than 40 fish! 

Show bite with higher then normal dirty water. Fly Fishing at its finest. When you are given lemons make lemonade! Rick boated the biggest Smallmouth he's ever had in the fly measuring 19.50" 4.50lbs. Great job! 

The odds seemed stacked against us before the boat even hit the water. A weather front was on us. We gave it or best and came out on top. Over 60 fish boated with multiple citations and honorable mentions

Matt had a great day Fishing the Upper Potomac and landed this brute of a Prespawn Smallie. measuring over 20"s and just over 5lbs. We are in the first phases of Prespawn movement. This is an event that will last 3 weeks or so. get out there while the getting is good! 

Winter is the best time to catch that PB (Personal Best) fish of a Lifetime! The Smallmouth are in deeper water but can be called up to eat a Jerkbait. This is a great style to fish. As you retrieve your bait you'll sometimes see the fish appear out of the depths. Following your bait and strike it. It's as great as topwater strikes!
