Weekly Fishing Report: Includes May Outlook Steve Chaconas National Bass Guide Service We Need the Rain? 05/20/2018
FISHING REPORT By Charlie Taylor Fishing Report - May 18, 2018OVERVIEW - With the deluge of rain throughout the state this week, fishing should be off for a while as large slugs of water come roaring down all the rivers. High and muddy water will be the state of things for the coming week. POTOMAC RIVER - D.C. - Due to the heavy rains this week, fishing is at a standstill. The water levels are predicted to be at flood stage through the middle of the week. Prior to the high water, small stripers, American shad and large catfish were the fare at Fletcher's Boathouse. Cut gizzard shad chunks are taking the stripers and catfish, while shad darts and small gold spoons are tempting the shad. This is the best year in recent memory for the American shad, while the smaller hickory shad are scarce.

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 May 17, 2018Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star RAPPAHANNOCK RIVER: Bass action has been slow, ad this weekend’s expected thunderstorms won’t help.

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!!!! ...
