Pacemaker Fishing Forum

The river fishing for largemouth bass is absolutely phenomenal right now. I fished the mouths of Little Hunting and Dogue Creek this weekend. The fish are beginning to move in to the back of the creeks to spawn, so these mouths are a major highway for fish. We even caught a few females whose tails had begun to turn red from fanning the surface. Throwing watermelon red or green pumpkin creature baits (strike king rodents, yamamoto flappin hogs, berkeley havoc pit boss to name a few) texas rigged, it was harder NOT to catch a fish than it was to catch them. Fish were caught at all different depths, from one ft of water to 15 ft, but the most productive areas were 3 and 4 ft water adjacent to deep water, right at the drop offs.  I caught about 30 bass this weekend, at least 10 over 3 lbs. There is nothing more I love than fighting a Potomac River bucket mouth (well maybe a land locked potomac striper-but thats not til ROCKtober). So if you have the chance, get out there and fish this area, the fishing is excellent.
