Potomac River 1/28/12

[Luv2fishCB]

I went out about 12:30 and fished until 4:30. I hit a couple of the small tributaries on the Maryland side of the Potomac near Wade's Bay and Mallows Bay. I was mainly targeting yellow perch and only had light tackle with me.

The river was a chocolate brown and I was surprised at the wind. When I checked the weather they said 5 knots but it was a bit rougher than that when I was coming back across the river.

I hit the deep holes on Aquia creek and around the RR bridge, again nothing hit and I didn't see anything on the fish finder.

May be a bit early. I think I'll try again in a couple of weeks.
