Potomac River 5/11
Launched from Pohick at 1pm. Not another bass boat or jet skier in sight - smiles on our faces. Had the creek to ourselves for outgoing tide and the south shore of the bay for incoming, and we capitalized. Lots of chunky 14-17" footballs, a few of which exceeded 3lbs. Green toads, white cranks and blue craws did most of the damage. A small incoming storm cell chased us off the water around 6, but by then our thumbs were ruff and we'd had enough. Water temps 68-72, stained at the front and clearer in the back. Great day to be on the water.

Re: Potomac River 5/11
Haha I was actually pretty pleased, despite my odd facial expression.
That WP must've been 11-12in. I figured you would appreciate that Ernie, that's why i snapped the pic. It fought hard in the strong current. He thought it was a nice bass.
