If a fiberglass, boat you will be fishing the Potomac DC south. From Chantilly best places to launch are either Leesylvania or Pohick. From Chantilly probably about 45 minutes to either. Longer on the ride home depending on traffic.
Lake Anna is another option. About 90 minutes away. Good spring and fall option. Super busy during the summer.
Send me a pm if you need more info. I work near Chantilly and live near the Potomac.

Yes bring your boat Feel free to drop a PM for any additional info

I will say this the traffic in the entire area SUCKS… BIG TIME. You can fish early during the week to avoid boat traffic on the Potomac or Anna BUT the traffic SUCKS!

other options for fishing within 2 hours are the Rappahannock and James or Chick but again Traffic SUCKS. You will be traveling 95 south for most of it. If you have 4 days off and can/willing to stay in a hotel then Anna Rapp James or Cick would be options as well.
