Old Rag and Summer

Type: Freshwater
Region: Western
Location: Upper Potamac

Took kayak out to Upper Potomac. Water was low and gin clear. Lots of SAV and algae. Got on the water about 4:00PM. First two hours was OK. Sunfish were very active . Hitting small topwaters on just about every cast.

Got two smallmouths on wacky style worms. Fish came from downcurrent side of rocks. About 6:30 switched on a 3” jointed firetiger Rapala and it was like someone rang the dinner bell. Just about every cast near a rock produced a hit.

Cast, land, twitch and POW! I lost count. Landed many smallmouths and missed quite a few too.
