Subject: Tidal Potomac River, Maryland
Submitted by Reel Bass Adventures
Date Fished: 8/3/2008
Water Temperature: 85
Water Clarity: 0 Good numbers of bass can be found in thick grass beds in creeks and on the main river. We start with topwater baits such as a buzz bait, poppers, spoons or a grass frog. Better size bass seem to like the grass frogs and they will hit them all day long. Work the frogs over the thick matted grasses. Along the outside edges of the beds, we do well with a variety of lures. Chartreuse/white chatterbaits, white spinnerbaits, shallow running chrome/blue crank baits, watermelon color stick worms and blue fleck or motor oil color plastic worms all catch bass. Wood cover as well as boat docks and rock piles also give up bass. Jig and craw combos find bass that are a little larger than average in these locations. The last few hours of the outgoing tide and the first hour of the incoming have been our most productive times.
