Weekly Fishing Report: Includes June Outlook Steve Chaconas National Bass Guide Service Surviving Muddy
Water
FISHING REPORT By Charlie Taylor Fishing Report - June 15, 2018OVERVIEW - Most rivers are still high and muddy, while lakes are stained. With more stable, hot weather predicted for the coming week, the mud should be dropping out and water clearing and getting warmer. POTOMAC RIVER - D.C. - Very few stripers, some white perch and lots of catfish are available at Fletcher's Boat House. High and swift water is still the norm here. The War College Wall in Washington Channel is giving up some bass for anglers using buzzbaits early and late in the day, and Berkley Power Worms when the sun is up. Main river grass, where found, is also giving up bass to anglers using buzzbaits and Power Worms. Bridge pilings are holding bass, along with big blue catfish. Catfish are available on flats adjacent to the channel on clam snouts, cut bait and cut crab. Columbia Island Lagoon is showing bass on dock pilings. Lake Anna MAY OUTLOOK
Chris Craft MAY OUTLOOK The annual Anna Point Marina/Fish Tales Youth Fishing Tournament is scheduled for Saturday May 12, 2018from 9AM to 1PM Registration will start around 7:30am. With the award ceremony to follow with some great food. (Rain date is Sat May 19) The Sunday Morning Bass Series kicks off on Sunday May 6 and will be held every Sunday all the way through Sunday September 30. These 5 hour event have become very popular over the past few years. Entry fee is $100 per boat (including big fish)
and has an 80% payback with an extended payout of a reverse 1 in 3
boats. There is also a Fall Classic that will be held in October
and will be a 100% payback event. All you have to do to be
eligible for the classic is fish one regular season event.
BASS- The bass have finally made their push to the shallows and lots of them are spawning. By the end of the month, look for the best top water action of the season to start. Look for f8sh in the emerging willow grass, Dave's Tournament Tackle Tiger Shad Spinnerbaits and Chatterbaits (bladed jigs) will produce fish throughout the month. As the shore line grass start to green up, it will get tougher to get moving baits through it, this is when pitching and flipping will come into play. May is the month that the shad and herring spawn, look foir them on shallow rocky points & rip rap banks. Walking top water baits like the Evergreen Custom Top Water Bait, Heddon Zara Spook and Spook Jr are great baits to imitate spawning baitfish. Soft jerkbaits are another great imitation of these spawning morsals. CRAPPIE- Early in the month the Crappie will still be spawning, as we get to the middle of the month, they will start to push back out to deeper water for the summer. Willow grass, beaver huts, boat docks and sea walls will be holding fish during the spawn. Fish a small minnow rigged under a slip bobber with minimal weight (just enough to keep minnow in place) or an abundance of artificial baits. Mt favorite is a 2" Big Bite Lures Curly Tail Grub rigged on a Mizmo 1/16oz jighead in Tractor Green, Green Weenie, Back/Blue Chart Tail and Wally World.
Early in the morning, look for them to be chasing baitfish to the surface. Broken Back Redfins are my favorite bait to catch them on. Once the feed is over, a four inch swimbait, rigged on a 1/4oz jig head will continue to catch them. LAKE LEVEL- FULL POOL WATER TEMPS & CLARITY Chris Craft FISHING REPORT June 13, 2018Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star FISHING REPORT June 13, 2018
RAPPAHANNOCK RIVER: Chris Hicks reports the river is finally starting to clear after weeks of rain that has muddied the water and kept anglers off the river. He expects good conditions by the weekend. Now is the time to catch big catfish before they retreat to their beds POTOMAC RIVER: Reel Bass Adventures reports bass action is slow but consistent. Early morning top water action can be had along pad fields by using buzz baits or poppers. Inside edges of grass beds hold good bass that like chatter baits, swim jigs and nine inch plastic worms. As the tide falls, move to the center of grass beds and pitch or flip plastic creature baits or jig-and-craw combos. Chickahominy Lake Fishing Report – June 13, 2018Posted on June 13, 2018 by Capt. Art Capt. Art Conway of Conway’s River Rat Guide Service (804-514-1486) out of Ed Allen’s Boats and Bait reported that Chickahominy Lake mid-day water temperatures were in the middle to high 70’s in the main lake and in the creeks on Wednesday (6/13/2018).

ARTICLES NEWS Chris Craft shared Amanda Lloyd Thompson's post.11 mins ·
The Stafford County Police Department Special Olympics Bass Tournament that was scheduled for tomorrow on the Potomac River has been postponed. Postponed to Friday June 22,2018 Great call for everyone involved! Not an easy decision to come by from a tournament director and it will most certainly not please everyone, but it is the correct call none the less!!!! It is better to have a few anglers pissed off at the time, then to have an accident happen and then have to attend a funeral!!!! ... See More |
