Potomac Report - Columbus Day
DanMarino  10/12/2010 - 10:23  Fishing Reports  Potomac    I fished by myself on Columbus Day from about 9AM-12:30PM. Hit my normal spots on the Potomac. The river was up some and a little dirty. About 4 feet visibility. I had trouble locating fish and fish were not really in the areas that I had found them in the summer.

Caught one smallie on a jerk bait. Got tired of taking all the grass off the trebble hooks and switched to throwing a tube. Caught 6 more smallies. Largest fish was about 14 inches. Had several others that were 13 inches that fought well.

Beautiful day on the water with not much boat traffic.
Good deal!

Fall Fishing
DanMarino  10/14/2010 - 07:17    I love October and just being outdoors in October is wonderful to me. It is interesting seeing the changes in the river. I can tell that the grass is starting to die off. The bait fish are still in the grassy areas from what I can tell. I think the next time out I'm going to launch from a different ramp just to see and fish some different water. So does the walleye bite pick up in the fall too?
