    potomac yesterday

    Was very windy and soupy. Water was 49-50. Only caught 2 bass but also had 2 surprises. about a 15lb bluecat on a 10" worm and a 15 1/2 inch Citation crappie weighing 2.07lbs. Would share a pic if I could upload it? Also, where is this "grass" I hear so much about?

    Grass is there have to look. I did my idling than fishing on Tuesday. I'd find a small patch and fish. I caught 8 in 3 hours. All in pairs.

    Steve, I saw some patchy grass in Belmont but it was very sparse. I ran across to Mattowoman against my better judgement and paid the price on the ride back. Was sparse there too although I only looked around the community pad field across from thoroghfare. My goal was to do some scouting yesterday but it was way too rough.

    Nice crappie! 15 more and it would be fish fry time!
    Lots of pre-emergent grass around with fish stuffed in it. It's not going to be visible on the surface for quite a while yet with this water temp and repeated cold fronts. I hope it stays like this awhile longer!
