Muddy Water On The Potomac

[Mike B.]

Had a good weekend fishing on the Potomac despite the muddy water, Rain, Changing Temps, and Wind.  Started out in rain, huge temperature swing, and changing wind during our Club Fall Classic this past weekend.  Managed 24.54 Lbs to win the tournament by utilizing our tools and finding the cleanest water possible and waiting on the outgoing tide.  Also moving to find places out of the wind to take advantage of the flattest water possible paid off on these two days.  Didn't talk to anyone catching anything on plastics both days. Our best bites came off of chatterbaits and top water walking baits.  Managed to find some descent grass and pretty clear water despite the heavy rains the last few days prior, thanks to the remnants of Michael. #FishSmarter #FallFun

Fishing post-hurricane is brutal to say the least then trying to do it in a river makes it even worse because of all the fresh water then add a tidal system... 

Good job finding a working pattern and thanks for the report Congrats on the win, awesome achievement anytime on the Potomac but even more so in those conditions.

attaboy! 

a 25lb bag on the Potomac is somethin to be proud of.   Figure it wasn't easy finding clean water with the decreased grass, so if you found some good green stuff, you probably found some concentration of active fish.  Good on ya!
