Blessings For 2009

Every spring I look back on the past season and I am in aw of the sheer numbers and size of the bass on the Tidal Potomac.  Year after year the river is getting better and better.  Even after the construction of the new Woodrow Wilson Bridge, and the disappearance of the aquatic grasses above Broad Creek the ecosystem grows healthier.  Last spring record numbers and size of fish spawnned between Broad Creek and Pomonkey Creeks.  Miles and miles of Milfoil and clear green water gave way to without a doubt the best spring I have ever seen on the Potomac River.  The 08' season even belittles the heyday's of Greenway Flatts in the 1990's.  I am hopefully optimistic that this trend of good fishing will continue into 2009 and maybe more records will fall.
