New Item! Potomac River - Bass Tournament Tactics Book - Written by Joe Gioffre and published by Potomac Media. Many fishermen with 25 years of experience on the Potomac can win tournaments and catch fish, but few have logged their fishing trips as meticulously as Joe Gioffre. Still fewer have the ability to put their life's fishing experience into such a well written and well made book. This large 114 page full color book contains 225 color photos and graphics and over 100 GPS coordinates. The book explains not just where to catch fish, but why they are there and at what time of the year. Joe has combined his knowledge with that of other great Potomac River anglers to bring you proven fish catching information and secrets. Others have asked for them but Joe has kept them secret - UNTIL NOW!

Fishing Reports

Submitted Feb 02, 2012 by Reel Bass Adventures:

"The bass fishing continues to be good. We are finding good numbers of bass on quick dropping ledges along the main river or in some of the deeper creeks. Our best bait remains the Manns Sting Ray grub, avocado color, rigged on a ¼ ounce ball head jig. We use Smelly Jelly fish attractant on our baits. Work the grubs in slow hops and try to remain in contact with the bottom or as close to it as you can. Bites may be subtle. The most active fish are usually on the shallow part of the ledge but fish can be located from the shallow to the deep part of the drop. Once you find a ledge with bass remain on it for a period of time. The fish may bite at different times throughout a tidal movement and one area may produce a dozen bass or more."

Water Temperature: 43 degrees; Water clarity: 1-2 feet.
