Pacemaker Fishing Forum

I just received a couple of emails regarding the major flooding that appears imminent on the Potomac River. This event will force many smallies into the canal as they seek refuge from the current.

Ben Hynes is requesting folks interested in volunteering to help him in a coordinated effort to help those fish back into the main river once the water levels drop (will trap many big fish in the canal).

It is projected that the gauge at Point of Rocks will hit as high as 32 feet! As Ben says, "this will put many smallies into the canal.  The canal will ultimately lock them in and once waters drop they will be trapped. Our plan is simple...seine,throw net and electro shock them up and return them to main body of river."
