Join Thomas Arens and Jared Mounts as we explore the fishing opportunities around the VA, WV, PA, MD, and greater D.C. area.
On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with Robert of River Rock Baits. We talk tubes and about natural forage, and what really gets pressured bass to bite. If you fish the Shenandoah River, Susquehanna River, Juniata River, Potomac River, James River, or other Mid-Atlantic rivers, this conversation is packed with information that can help you better understand smallmouth behavior and bait selection.
One of Robert’s most interesting theories is what he calls the “95/5” approach to smallmouth fishing. He believes that much of the time, especially on pressured water, anglers aren’t simply putting a bait in front of an actively feeding fish—they’re provoking or enticing the strike. That leads into a detailed discussion about why size, color, presentation, scent, and especially soft-plastic texture can matter when targeting river smallmouth that have already seen plenty of fishing pressure.
We also break down why tube fishing remains so effective for smallmouth bass decades after the technique became popular. Robert explains how River Rock Baits hand-dips its tubes, why he believes that process creates a different texture and action than many molded soft plastics, and how matching the hatch influences everything from bait size to color selection. We discuss common brown crayfish in the Shenandoah Valley, seasonal crawfish color changes, gobies, minnows, madtoms and stonecats, along with colors such as Amber Smash, Dark Erie Green, Goby and Red Swamp Craw.
The conversation also gets into seasonal smallmouth patterns. When cold water reduces the availability of crayfish, Robert explains why baitfish can become increasingly important around Susquehanna River wintering areas and why an extremely slow-moving minnow presentation can produce cold-water bites. We also compare Susquehanna and Shenandoah smallmouth, discuss the importance of local knowledge, and look at how experienced river anglers have helped Robert develop baits for specific fisheries from Pennsylvania and Virginia to larger northern smallmouth waters.
In this episode, we cover:
• Why Robert believes many smallmouth strikes are provoked rather than feeding bites
• Why tubes remain one of the best baits for river smallmouth bass
• Size, color, scent, presentation and texture for pressured smallmouth
• Matching crayfish and baitfish forage throughout the seasons
• Susquehanna River vs. Shenandoah River smallmouth fishing
• Hand-dipped tubes vs. molded soft plastics and why texture matters
• Stonecat/madtom, goby and crawfish imitations for river bass
• Winter smallmouth fishing and ultra-slow baitfish presentations

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, Ty to break down his second-place finish in the Virginia Bass Nation Kayak Series tournament on the Chickahominy River in Virginia. Ty landed 81.50 inches of largemouth bass while figuring out a changing tidal bite built around buzzbaits, poppers and spinnerbaits. Anglers interested in Chickahominy River bass fishing, kayak tournament strategy and summertime tidal-water fishing will hear exactly how he adjusted throughout the day.
Ty entered the tournament with limited recent experience on the Chickahominy River system and made a last-minute decision to launch from Chickahominy Riverfront Park instead of returning to the water he practiced near Rockahock. He began by searching a winding creek, concentrating on bends, grass, cypress trees and other shallow-water cover. His usual drop shots, shaky heads, wacky rigs and soft plastics failed to produce consistently, forcing him to abandon his original plan and pay closer attention to what the bass were actually doing.
The pattern changed when a buzzbait generated three strikes within roughly 10 minutes. Ty then picked up a popper and found largemouth bass feeding around grass and chasing large baitfish that appeared to be gizzard shad. He explains why accurate casts, lure color and matching the available forage were so important, along with how incorrect replacement hooks contributed to several lost popper fish. When the clouds disappeared, the wind increased and the water became muddier, Ty transitioned to a spinnerbait and caught the biggest bass of his day.
One of the most valuable lessons involved presentation angles. Several spinnerbait strikes came while Ty retrieved the lure in the opposite direction from what he expected based on the current. Once he recognized that pattern, he repeatedly covered the same productive stretch instead of leaving. His Old Town Autopilot 120, remote steering and Spot-Lock helped him stand up, maintain position and make precise casts between isolated grass clumps.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV I have on Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources biologist John Odenkirk for an in-depth Lake Anna fishing report covering largemouth bass, northern snakeheads, striped bass, hybrid stripers, Saugeye, crappie, chain pickerel and the lake’s forage populations. Anglers fishing Lake Anna, the North Anna River, Pamunkey Creek, Contrary Creek and the greater Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania County area will get a detailed look at why this Virginia fishery continues to improve.
Lake Anna’s largemouth bass population is producing historic survey results. During DWR’s latest standardized electrofishing survey, biologists collected an average of 138 bass per hour and 122 adult, stock-size bass per hour—both new records for the lake’s long-term sampling program. John explains why those numbers are so impressive for a large, clear-water reservoir and how submerged aquatic vegetation, water willow, woody cover, abundant forage and a productive watershed have helped Lake Anna move far beyond its old “Dead Sea” reputation.
We also break down the return of hydrilla and other aquatic vegetation, the difference between today’s limited grass carp management and the massive stockings of the 1990s, and why healthy vegetation matters for bass habitat, shoreline protection and nutrient control. John discusses wake-boat concerns in the narrower portions of the lake, harmful algal blooms, drought conditions and the potential effects of future water demands and data-center development within the North Anna watershed.
Beyond largemouth bass fishing, this episode covers the future of Lake Anna’s northern snakehead population, DWR’s striped bass and hybrid striped bass stocking strategy, and the major success of the saugeye program. John explains why pure stripers grow slowly at Lake Anna, why hybrids may be better suited to the reservoir and where anglers may find saugeye during the winter. We also discuss rising crappie numbers, chain pickerel in the upper Contrary Creek area, the difficulty of measuring blueback herring and threadfin shad, and other improving Virginia bass fisheries such as Nye Reservoir, Occoquan Reservoir and the tidal Rappahannock River.

Williamsburg, Virginia, is surrounded by more bass fishing opportunities than many Mid-Atlantic anglers realize. In this episode of Fishing the DMV, I sits down with Brain Boog, a local tournament angler and Woods & Waters writer, to discuss largemouth bass, spotted bass, chain pickerel, and bowfin fishing throughout Williamsburg, Newport News, Gloucester, Suffolk, and the greater Hampton Roads region.
he breaks down the lakes he has been fishing through a local electric-only tournament trail, including Waller Mill Reservoir, Diascund Reservoir, Lake Prince, Beaver Dam Reservoir, Chickahominy Lake, and several of the Suffolk water-supply reservoirs. Anglers planning a Virginia bass fishing trip will hear firsthand observations about which fisheries are producing quality fish, which lakes can become difficult under tournament pressure, and how these bodies of water change throughout the summer.
A major part of the conversation focuses on Chickahominy Lake, located above the Chickahominy River near Williamsburg. Bryan explains why the lake remains one of his favorite places to fish large wake baits around shallow cover, grass, and warm summer water. The discussion also covers the impressive weights being brought into local Tuesday-night tournaments, the lake’s largemouth bass population, and the bowfin that regularly surprise bass anglers.
Brain also highlights Harwood’s Mill Reservoir as an overlooked destination for anglers searching for quality largemouth bass and trophy-sized chain pickerel near Newport News. Other valuable topics include punching thick vegetation at Newport News Park, targeting offshore structure at Diascund Reservoir, fishing bridge pilings at Lake Prince, and learning how to use forward-facing sonar without allowing electronics to distract from productive fishing.
Thomas and Brian also discuss access changes at Little Creek Reservoir and Western Branch Reservoir, the unique bass fishing opportunities around Norfolk and Virginia Beach, and the possibility of a future Virginia state-record largemouth coming from an overlooked lake or private pond. That conversation was inspired by a massive bass caught from the runoff lake beneath the roller coasters at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.

Captain Tom Weaver of Tom Weaver Fishing Guide Service joins the Fishing the DMV Podcast for an information-packed conversation about more than 35 years of fishing and working on the Chesapeake Bay. Operating from the Annapolis area, Captain Weaver offers light-tackle fishing, Chesapeake Bay fly fishing, and family-friendly fishing charters targeting everything from shallow-water rockfish and winter pickerel to bluefish, cobia, red drum, and other seasonal species.
Captain Weaver shares how he arrived in Maryland in 1990, just as striped bass fishing reopened following the moratorium, and immediately fell in love with the Chesapeake Bay. Before becoming a full-time Chesapeake Bay fishing guide, he spent approximately 25 years racing sailboats professionally, competed in America’s Cup campaigns, raced around the world, helped lead an Italian America’s Cup team, and later started a boatbuilding company. He also spent more than a decade guiding during the winters in Key West before earning one of Maryland’s limited-entry guide licenses and building his Maryland fishing charter business.
The conversation takes a detailed look at how Chesapeake Bay fishing has changed since the 1990s. Captain Weaver explains how major schools of striped bass gradually shifted north from traditional Mid-Bay locations such as The Hill near Poplar Island toward Love Point, Swan Point, Tolchester, Baltimore, and the Susquehanna Flats. Rather than following those fish farther north, he adapted by locating smaller groups of rockfish in extremely shallow water around Eastern Bay and the Choptank River. He now regularly fishes in three feet of water or less, sometimes sight-casting to wary striped bass in water barely deep enough to float his boat. He also discusses the growth of the Severn River chain pickerel fishery, improving water clarity, expanding grass beds, oyster restoration, striped bass spawning conditions, and serious concerns surrounding white perch recruitment.
Captain Weaver also breaks down his favorite Chesapeake Bay fishing techniques. During the summer, he frequently throws topwater lures throughout the day—even under bright afternoon sun. His preferred spinning lures are the Heddon Super Spook XT and Heddon One Knocker, modified by replacing the treble hooks with inline single hooks. For fly anglers, he recommends eight- or nine-weight equipment, accurate presentations, clear fly lines when fish are especially wary, topwater poppers, and learning to use a proper strip-set instead of lifting the rod with a traditional trout-set.
Captain Weaver also shares memorable Chesapeake Bay fishing stories, including catching large winter striped bass near the Bay Bridge, targeting pickerel on fly tackle, encountering a group of huge tarpon south of Taylor’s Island, and getting shots at 17 cobia near Poplar Island during a single fly-fishing trip. He explains why late summer can bring opportunities for cobia, red drum, bluefish, Spanish mackerel, and speckled trout, while winter offers catch-and-release opportunities for trophy striped bass and chain pickerel.
The episode also explores Captain Weaver’s fisheries advocacy work. He explains why he supports responsible winter catch-and-release fishing, how seasonal closures can protect striped bass during periods of high water temperatures, and why keeping anglers connected to the resource is important for the long-term future of Chesapeake Bay conservation. His observations come from decades spent on the water, but he also emphasizes the importance of listening to fisheries biologists, managers, and scientific research.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV!! I have on EJ from Anglers of Annapolis to discuss white perch fishing around Annapolis, Kent Island, the Severn River, the Magothy River, and Maryland’s tidal tributaries. Whether you are introducing a child to fishing or looking for a dependable summer bite, this conversation offers practical information you can use on your next trip.
EJ is a lifelong Maryland angler who has fished the Chesapeake Bay since childhood and has been visiting Anglers of Annapolis since he was around 14 years old. He explains why white perch are such a great species for beginners, how anglers can get started without spending a fortune, and where these fish can be found throughout the year. We discuss public fishing opportunities at places such as Matapeake Fishing Pier, Romancoke Fishing Pier, Jonas Green Park, and other shoreline locations throughout Anne Arundel County and Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
We also break down the best bait for Chesapeake Bay white perch. EJ explains why bloodworms remain one of the most productive choices in the main bay, while night crawlers can be an affordable and effective option farther inside tributaries where the water becomes fresher. He also walks through the early spring spawning run, the movement of white perch toward docks and piers during the warmer months, and the deeper-water schools anglers may find during the fall.
The conversation then turns to the 11th Annual White Perch Open hosted by Anglers of Annapolis. The family-friendly event includes youth divisions, prizes, food, music, and hundreds of white perch being cleaned, cooked, and served on-site. This year’s event honors the late Charlie Ebersberger, a longtime owner of Anglers of Annapolis who loved white perch fishing and played an important role in the local fishing community.
EJ also shares the mission behind Combos for Kids, a nonprofit that introduces underserved children, children with special needs, at-risk youth, and children in foster care to fishing. Volunteers donate their boats, equipment, time, and knowledge, while every child participating in the boating events gets to keep their fishing setup and continue their journey on the water.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I have on Susquehanna River fishing guide Chris Gorsuch returns to Fishing the DMV for a detailed look at summer smallmouth bass fishing across one of Pennsylvania’s most recognizable river systems. From the main stem near Harrisburg and North Liverpool to the North Branch around Laceyville and the Endless Mountains, Chris explains what he is seeing from the fishery and how anglers can adjust when quality smallmouth are not holding in their usual places.
Chris believes the Susquehanna River is still fishing well, especially for anglers looking to catch numbers of smallmouth bass. However, he has seen fewer fish in the 19- to 20-plus-inch range than during the previous several springs. Bigger bass are still available—including two 23-inch smallmouth caught from his boat—but finding them has required more movement, more fuel and a willingness to fish away from the same heavily pressured areas. We discuss how year classes, winter ice, delayed grass growth, floods, low water, high summer temperatures, pollution, predators and changing forage can all influence the Susquehanna River smallmouth population.
The conversation also turns toward summer smallmouth fishing techniques and the best baits for different sections of the river. Chris considers a chatterbait essential on the lower Susquehanna and main stem, while crankbaits are a major part of his North Branch fishing from spring through late fall. On the nearby Delaware River, he leans heavily on spinnerbaits, especially white skirts paired with silver, gold or copper blades that resemble young American shad and other baitfish.
Chris also breaks down several developments from FITT Lures, including the Flea Flicker swimbait, VIG and Javelin. The Flea Flicker features a keeled body that allows anglers to shorten the bait while maintaining its profile and action. The VIG is a compact, thick-walled tube-style bait that can be fished on a Ned head, screw-lock jig, Carolina rig or other presentations. Chris explains how these baits can be used around grass, deeper holes, current breaks and other productive river smallmouth habitat.
Fish care is another important part of this episode. Chris shares why he nets every bass, keeps his camera ready before lifting a fish from the water and releases weak post-spawn fish without taking a picture. He also discusses shortening fight times during warm-water periods and why proper handling matters when catching large Susquehanna River smallmouth.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV I have o Captain Nate Myers of Catch N Memories for a deep dive into Chesapeake Bay cobia fishing and the unique sight-fishing culture that has developed across the Lower Bay and Virginia Beach region. With more than 15 years of experience chasing cobia from the Outer Banks to the Chesapeake Bay, Nate breaks down what anglers need to know about locating, presenting baits to and landing one of the Mid-Atlantic’s most unpredictable gamefish.
This Chesapeake Bay fishing report covers a season that started with a strong spring migration but transitioned into a more challenging summer sight bite. At the time of the conversation, Lower Chesapeake Bay water temperatures were running in the upper 70s, while some cobia had already been caught in water close to 60 degrees earlier in the migration. Nate explains why more fish may be holding deeper in the water column, why chumming can remain productive when cobia refuse to surface and how increasing boat traffic, shifting menhaden concentrations, warmer water and offshore structure could be changing traditional migration patterns.
We also break down the two primary approaches to Virginia cobia fishing: sight-casting from a tower boat and chumming along cuts, sloughs and depth changes. Nate explains how to locate cobia around stingrays, sea turtles, sharks, buoys, wrecks and the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel, along with the importance of polarized glasses, boat positioning and placing a bait several feet ahead of a moving fish. The tackle discussion includes longer casting rods, Penn Slammer spinning reels, 40-pound braid, 50-pound leaders, circle hooks, live eels, finfish, cobia jigs and soft-plastic swimbaits.
July can bring tougher fishing while cobia are focused on spawning, but Nate expects the action to improve as fish begin grouping and feeding more aggressively during August and September. He also shares the story of a rare 47.5-inch piebald cobia that was tagged and released, the challenge of netting big fish under Virginia’s no-gaff regulations and how the offshore Virginia wind turbines are developing into habitat for cobia, flounder, sea bass, triggerfish, mahi and other species.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Mickey to break down his back-to-back tournament victory on Conowingo Reservoir.
Mickey explains how he prepared for an unusually early spring tournament, tracked smallmouth bass as they moved from their wintering areas toward spawning grounds, and adjusted when cold rain, powerful winds, rising water and changing current made tournament day a grind. After going nearly an hour without a bite, Mickey stayed patient and eventually put together a winning limit that included an 18.25-inch smallmouth and a 19-inch kicker.
We discuss the exact areas he targeted, how he found fish positioned around protected pockets, deeper cuts and current transitions, and why a red-craw flat-sided crankbait produced most of his fish. Mickey also explains how a fire-craw chatterbait helped him make a late upgrade when the crankbait bite disappeared.
The conversation also covers the challenges and dangers of kayak fishing Conowingo Reservoir, tournament photo-submission mistakes, adjusting between a grinder and a slugfest, fishing around changing tides and current, and the advantages of using an inflatable fishing kayak in shallow, rocky rivers.
Whether you’re preparing to fish Conowingo Reservoir, chasing pre-spawn Susquehanna River smallmouth or trying to become a better kayak tournament angler, this episode is packed with valuable information you can apply on the water.

Smith Mountain Lake July Fishing Report: Low Water Bass Fishing, Grass Carp & Big Bait Trends
On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Billy Kohls of Smith Mountain Lake Guide Service for a full Smith Mountain Lake July fishing report and deep dive into summer bass fishing on Smith Mountain Lake. If you’re looking for the latest on Smith Mountain Lake bass fishing, Virginia bass fishing, low water bass fishing, and how to catch largemouth bass and smallmouth bass during tough summer conditions, this episode is packed with information.
Billy breaks down the current Smith Mountain Lake water level, why the lake is still very fishable, which areas are most affected by the low water, and how anglers should safely approach boat ramps, main-lake channels, pockets, docks, and offshore structure. We also discuss how the low water, cooler spring, and fluctuating conditions have impacted the bass spawn, bluegill spawn, shad spawn, fry guarders, and overall summer bass patterns.
From there, we get into the actual fishing. Billy explains how bass are setting up around docks, points, brush piles, bluegill beds, offshore structure, deep water, and schooling areas. We talk about key July bass fishing techniques like drop shot fishing, topwater fishing, big worm fishing, deep crankbait fishing, dock fishing, brush pile fishing, and offshore bass fishing. Whether you’re fishing a tournament, planning a summer trip to Smith Mountain Lake, or just trying to understand how bass adjust during low-water conditions, this report gives you a solid game plan.
We also cover the ongoing Smith Mountain Lake grass carp and aquatic vegetation debate, including the latest update on the reduced grass carp stocking number and why angler involvement may have helped protect important bass habitat. Billy shares why aquatic grass matters, how grass impacts bass fishing, and what anglers should be watching for moving forward.
Toward the end of the episode, we dive into one of the hottest trends in bass fishing right now: hairy ball baits, dice baits, urchin-style baits, JDM bass baits, and forward-facing sonar bass fishing. Billy explains why these weird-looking baits are catching big bass, how they can be used around docks, brush piles, suspended fish, bluegill patterns, and open water, and why they are not just a forward-facing sonar bait.
If you fish Smith Mountain Lake, follow Virginia bass fishing, love summer bass fishing reports, or want to stay ahead of new bass fishing trends like dice baits, urchin baits, and offshore sonar fishing, this is an episode you do not want to miss.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with Virginia angler Nick Passalacqua to break down one of Central Virginia’s most underrated bass fishing regions — the James River, Appomattox River, Chickahominy River, and Lake Chesdin.
Nick grew up minutes from the James and Appomattox, and in this conversation he gives us a true local’s perspective on how these fisheries set up, why the Appomattox fishes differently from the James, where tidal influence matters, and why Lake Chesdin may be one of the most overlooked big-bass lakes in Virginia.
We also dive into Nick’s recent 24-pound tournament bag on Lake Chesdin, how he targets both shallow grass fish and offshore fish, why the hotter the weather gets the better the bite can be, and what makes Chesdin such a sneaky big-fish factory. Nick also breaks down his Quaky-style bait setup, treble-hook rigging, grass fishing approach, crankbait/Carolina rig bite, and how gizzard shad and bluegill influence the fishery.
Later in the episode, we talk about the current state of the James and Chickahominy, how the hard winter may have impacted grass, why some areas are fishing tougher than normal, and the growing forward-facing sonar debate in local Virginia tournament trails.
Topics covered include:
• Lake Chesdin bass fishing breakdown
• Nick’s 24-pound tournament bag
• James River vs. Appomattox River vs. Chickahominy River
• How tide affects the Appomattox River
• Grass fishing and offshore fishing on Chesdin
• Quaky bait setup, hooks, rod, reel, and line
• Why Chesdin produces giant bags
• The state of the James River and Chickahominy in 2026
• Forward-facing sonar bans in Virginia tournament trails
• Local Tuesday and Thursday night tournament series
• Nick’s future tournament goals, BFL plans, and fishing journey

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with professional bass angler Keith Poche to break down his Potomac River Toyota Series win and the shallow-water strategy that helped him beat the field.
Keith explains how he used his custom Gator Trax aluminum boat to access hard-to-reach tidal creeks, beaver dams, grass flats, pad fields, and backwater areas most bass boats cannot reach. We talk through his tournament decisions, including his day-one Neabsco Creek pattern, surprise big bites near a sewer outflow, his day-two run toward Washington, D.C., and the final-day creek that helped him close out the win.
This episode is packed with Potomac River bass fishing strategy, tidal bass fishing tips, frog fishing, shallow-water tournament tactics, fish management, high-tide feeding windows, and Keith’s approach to staying confident in his own style instead of following the crowd.
Keith also compares the Potomac River to the James River, talks Gator Trax boats, and explains why simple baits like a frog, shaky head, Pit Boss, and Berkley General still catch big bass in 2026.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we are joined by Taylor from Always Bent Fishing for a full Ocean City, Maryland summer fishing report!
The spring run in Ocean City was one of the best in recent memory, with big striped bass showing up heavy in the surf, around the Route 50 Bridge, in the bay, and along the beach for anglers soaking bait. Now that water temperatures are climbing, the bite has officially shifted into summer mode, and Taylor breaks down everything anglers need to know before heading to the coast.
We talk about the current flounder bite in the bay, around the inlet, near the Route 50 Bridge, and on nearshore wrecks, plus the arrival of bluefish, red drum, sheepshead, cobia, and other summer species. Taylor also explains why water temperature is one of the biggest factors he watches when predicting the transition from the spring striped bass run into the summer bite.
In this episode, we also cover the best places for visiting anglers to fish from shore, including the Ocean City Inlet, North Jetty, Oceanic Fishing Pier, Third Street Pier, and Route 50 Bridge. Taylor gives practical tips on baits, tackle, tides, structure, and how freshwater anglers can get started fishing saltwater without feeling overwhelmed.
We also dive into the tougher-than-usual back bay fishing, the better action closer to the inlet, the speckled trout situation on the Chesapeake side, the early arrival of sheepshead and cobia, and the funky start to the offshore tuna and marlin season. Taylor shares his thoughts on how Gulf Stream movement, water temperature, and changing patterns may be affecting Ocean City’s inshore and offshore fishing.
Plus, we preview the Fish and Paddle Saltwater Slam kayak tournament, the growing Ocean City kayak fishing scene, and the buildup to the White Marlin Open, one of the biggest offshore fishing events in the world and one of the busiest weeks of the year in Ocean City.
Whether you fish from the surf, bridge, pier, kayak, bay boat, or offshore boat, this episode is packed with Ocean City fishing information to help you catch more fish this summer.
If you are planning a trip to Ocean City, Maryland, this is the episode you need to hear before you go!

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we are joined by Joshua Powell Morris of Richmond Crappie Guide Service and the Richmond Crappie Club for a deep dive into summertime crappie fishing in Virginia. Josh breaks down how crappie behavior changes after the spawn, why summer fish become more predictable around brush piles, bridge pilings, docks, current breaks, and shade lines, and how anglers can build a productive rotation of spots when the bite gets tough.
We also get into Josh’s tournament season, including his success on the Bobcats trail, traveling to Missouri for a massive crappie tournament, and what those experiences revealed about how strong Virginia’s crappie fisheries really are. Josh compares fisheries like Buggs Island/Kerr, Lake Anna, Chickahominy River, James River, Rappahannock River, Occoquan Reservoir, and High Rock, while explaining why some rivers are boom-or-bust and others consistently produce numbers.
If you are trying to catch more crappie this summer, this episode is loaded with practical information: when to use minnows versus artificial baits, why pressured fish often respond better to live bait, how long to give a brush pile before moving, why you should change presentation after a fish follows but does not commit, and how bank anglers can target crappie around bridges, shade, docks, and deeper summer cover.
Josh also shares his favorite summer crappie baits, including minnows, Bobby Garland Baby Shad in Monkey Milk, curly tails, paddle tails, and smaller post-spawn presentations. We finish with a breakdown of the best seasons to book a crappie guide trip depending on your goals—whether you want bigger fish, easier-to-find fish, numbers, or a chance to learn techniques you can repeat on your own.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with Kevin Flint of Flint Financial Planning for one of the most important conversations we’ve had about the future of fishing, tournament angling, and the real cost of chasing this sport.
Kevin grew up fishing Smith Mountain Lake with his dad out of an old Ranger bass boat, and today he brings a unique perspective as both a lifelong angler and a Certified Financial Planner. We talk about how Smith Mountain Lake has changed over the years, the impact of blueback herring on the fishery, the recent low-water conditions, and how the lake’s economy has evolved since COVID.
Then we take a deep dive into the financial side of bass fishing. Why are boats, trucks, gas, tackle, hotels, and entry fees getting so expensive? Are tournament payouts keeping up with inflation? Is forward-facing sonar really the reason tournament participation is down, or is the real issue the rising cost of everything around the sport?
Kevin breaks down the economics behind the fishing industry, why $100,000 in tournament winnings does not go as far as it used to, and what young anglers need to understand before taking on debt to chase the dream. We also discuss LLCs, Schedule C income, taxes on tournament winnings, guide businesses, budgeting, credit card debt, buy-now-pay-later programs, umbrella insurance, and how anglers at every stage of life can make smarter financial decisions.
Whether you’re a high school angler, college fisherman, weekend tournament guy, full-time guide, retiring angler, or someone dreaming about buying a new boat, this episode is packed with information that could save you a lot of money and stress.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we head back to Pennsylvania to break down the Juniata River smallmouth bass bite with Jordan Lovejoy, winner of the Kayak Adventure Series Juniata River event with an impressive 94.50 inches. Jordan shares how he unlocked a powerful post-spawn smallmouth bass pattern, why the Juniata River is one of the most underrated smallmouth rivers in the country, and how kayak anglers can find overlooked fish in current, shoals, isolated rock, and mid-river structure.
We dive deep into Juniata River fishing, Susquehanna River smallmouth behavior, kayak bass fishing strategy, and the key differences between fishing the Juniata River, Upper Potomac River, New River, Shenandoah River, Holston River, and Susquehanna River. Jordan explains how he targeted post-spawn smallmouth with a chatterbait, why subtle bait action mattered, how fish were positioning around rock and current seams, and why many anglers overlook the best water by focusing only on the bank.
This episode is loaded with river smallmouth fishing knowledge, including how to fish current, how to locate big smallmouth bass after the spawn, how to break down shallow rocky rivers, how to approach kayak fishing tournaments, and why the Juniata River Valley deserves more attention on the national bass fishing stage. Jordan also talks about the growth of kayak tournament fishing, the Kayak Adventure Series, college kayak fishing, forward-facing sonar, river fishing safety, kayak motors, and why smallmouth rivers in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and the Mid-Atlantic are some of the best fisheries in the country.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with Capt. Sam Scott of Blue Ridge Muskies to discuss a serious and growing concern on the Jackson River and Upper James River: pollution concerns connected to the Smurfit Westrock paper mill in Covington, Virginia.
Sam breaks down what he has seen firsthand on his home waters, including dramatic water discoloration, sludge-like buildup on the river bottom, major dark-water events, poor fishing conditions after discharge events, and concerns over dissolved oxygen, water temperature, aquatic vegetation, spawning success, and the long-term health of the James River muskie and smallmouth bass fisheries.
We also discuss why this issue matters beyond fishing. The Jackson River feeds the Upper James, one of Virginia’s most important recreational river systems for anglers, guides, kayakers, tubers, and outdoor tourism. Sam explains why he believes more transparency, public awareness, and expanded water testing are urgently needed — including testing for more than just dissolved oxygen.
This conversation also touches on a national report that identified the Covington Smurfit Westrock facility as one of the most concerning paper mills in the country for pollution, emissions, odor complaints, and its impact on the Jackson River.
This is an important developing story for anyone who cares about Virginia rivers, the Upper James fishery, muskie fishing, smallmouth bass, clean water, and the future of outdoor recreation in the Mid-Atlantic.

In this episode of Fishing the DMV, we head back to the legendary Potomac River with one of the most knowledgeable anglers to ever fish it Captain Steve Chaconas.
Captain Steve breaks down the current state of the Potomac River bass fishery, including how the river is really fishing, why submerged aquatic vegetation like milfoil and SAV is so important, and how the loss of grass has changed the way anglers need to approach the river. We also discuss fishing pressure, tournament pressure, changing fish behavior, and why the Potomac may not be “dead” — but it is absolutely different.
Steve also gives an incredible breakdown of how to catch Potomac River bass right now, including his favorite summer techniques: chatterbaits, swim jigs, frogs, punching mats, Texas-rigged Senkos, spinnerbaits, docks, pads, hard cover, and old-school Carolina rigs. He also shares one of his secret topwater baits — the Hub’s Chub — and explains why it can trigger pressured bass and snakeheads when other baits won’t.
We also dive into underrated northern Potomac and DC-area bass fishing spots, including Piscataway, Dike Marsh, Spoils, Broad Creek, Belle Haven, Jones Point, Four Mile Run, Washington Channel, Pentagon Lagoon, Roosevelt Island, and the Anacostia.
If you fish the Potomac River, Northern Virginia, Maryland tidal bass fisheries, or want to better understand summer bass fishing around grass, docks, pads, tides, and hard cover, this is a must-listen episode.

In this episode of Fishing the DMV, we head back to Buggs Island Reservoir, also known as Kerr Lake, for a full summer fishing report with Captain Zach from Threadfin Guide Services. If you are looking for the latest information on Buggs Island fishing, Kerr Lake fishing, Kerr Lake striper fishing, Buggs Island striped bass, Kerr Lake bass fishing, and summer patterns across the Virginia and North Carolina border, this episode is packed with valuable fishing insight.
Captain Zach breaks down what is happening right now on Kerr Lake as the lake moves into its summer fishing patterns. We talk about current water conditions, water clarity, water temperature, lake levels, and how those factors are impacting the bite for striped bass, spotted bass, largemouth bass, walleye, white bass, and other species on Buggs Island.
A major focus of this episode is Kerr Lake striper fishing and Buggs Island striped bass fishing. Zach explains how the shad spawn and herring spawn transition into the early summer striper pattern, why the fish are moving from nighttime topwater feeding into deeper schools, and how anglers can target them with deep water jigging, slab spoons, offshore-style jigs, braid-to-fluorocarbon setups, and vertical presentations. We discuss how stripers are being found in deep water, why staying directly over the school matters, and how fish can move quickly when feeding on bait.
We also get into topwater striper fishing on Buggs Island and Kerr Lake, including the nighttime bite during the shad and herring spawn, fishing Cotton Cordell RedFins, and why calm, dark nights can create some of the best striper action of the year. Zach also previews the late summer and early fall topwater striper bite, when giant schools of striped bass can erupt on the surface and create some of the most exciting fishing anywhere in Virginia or North Carolina.
This episode is not just about striper fishing. We also dive deep into Kerr Lake bass fishing, including summer bass fishing, spotted bass fishing, and largemouth bass fishing patterns. Zach explains how anglers can still catch bass shallow during the summer, especially around rock piles, brush piles, bluegill beds, willows, points, and baitfish activity. We talk about topwater bass fishing, big worm fishing, shallow rock piles, clear water sight-fishing opportunities, and why hot weather can be a great time to throw oversized soft plastics for largemouth bass.
For anglers interested in spotted bass fishing, Zach breaks down why Buggs Island has become such an exciting spotted bass fishery. We discuss shallow topwater bites, offshore schools, points, deep water structure, and the possibility of truly giant spotted bass living in Kerr Lake. We also talk about how spotted bass, largemouth bass, and striped bass can all relate to blueback herring, threadfin shad, rock, brush, and offshore structure during the summer.
Captain Zach also shares his thoughts on the changing fish populations in Buggs Island Reservoir, including the decline of white bass fishing, the increase in walleye catches, and what he is seeing while guiding across the lake. We discuss Kerr Lake walleye, white bass, catfish, carp, fly fishing opportunities, and how Threadfin Guide Services targets multiple species throughout the year across Virginia fishing and North Carolina fishing destinations.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with Hunter Brooks and Todd Sadler from Green Top to break down the new Virginia gun laws, the upcoming Virginia assault weapons ban, magazine capacity limits, firearm transfer deadlines, and the civil liability concerns facing gun shops, firearm manufacturers, and outdoor retailers.
This conversation goes far beyond politics. It affects Virginia hunting, fishing, conservation, gun ownership, outdoor recreation, local tackle shops, archery, firearm sales, and the future of the outdoor community across the Mid-Atlantic.
If you are a hunter, angler, firearm owner, sportsman, conservation supporter, or someone who shops at Green Top, Bass Pro Shops, Cabela’s, local gun shops, or outdoor stores in Virginia, this is an episode you need to hear.
We cover the biggest questions people are asking right now:
What does the Virginia assault weapons ban actually mean?
What firearms are affected after July 1?
Can you still own firearms purchased before the law takes effect?
What happens if you order a firearm before July 1 but do not take possession in time?
How do the magazine capacity limits affect rifles, handguns, AR-15s, AR pistols, rimfire rifles, tactical shotguns, and turkey hunting shotguns?
How could this impact deer hunting, turkey hunting, waterfowl hunting, recreational shooting, and outdoor tourism in Virginia?
What does the civil liability law mean for Green Top, local gun stores, firearm manufacturers, and outdoor businesses?
Hunter and Todd also explain what customers are most confused about, how Green Top is preparing for these changes, and why many Virginia firearm owners still do not realize how close these changes are.
We also talk about the future of Green Top, the strength of the Virginias outdoors communities, and why hunters and anglers need to stay informed, stay involved, and understand how legislation can impact the outdoor lifestyle.
This is one of the most important outdoor conversations happening in Virginia right now.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with CJ Craft to break down the current state of Potomac River bass fishing, tidal bass fishing, and what it takes to catch quality tournament fish on one of the most pressured bass fisheries in the Mid-Atlantic. CJ recently finished tied for 2nd place in the Shenandoah Division BFL on the Potomac River with 15 pounds, 13 ounces, and he shares exactly how he approached a tough tidal river tournament where the bite window opened early and every key decision mattered.
We talk in-depth about the challenges facing the Potomac River right now, including the lack of submerged grass, shrinking grass beds, heavy boat pressure, lower tournament weights, and why the river is “fishing smaller” than it has in past years. CJ explains how limited grass has pushed more anglers into the same community holes around areas like Belmont and Occoquan Bay, why grass fishing on the Potomac River has become more difficult, and how hard cover fishing has become a major factor in catching quality largemouth bass.
CJ also breaks down his BFL fishing strategy, including how he practiced for the Shenandoah Division BFL, why he stayed close to takeoff, how low tide positioned his fish, and how he caught every bass he weighed before 8:00 AM. We dive into tidal bass fishing tips, understanding tide timing, fishing around pressure, making adjustments during tough conditions, and why overlooked water can be the key to catching bigger bass in Potomac River tournaments.
In this episode, we also cover the Battle of the Border Series, Maryland vs. Virginia tournament fishing, local Potomac River team tournaments, and how CJ and Jeff Whitner adjusted from a hard cover pattern to a grass-oriented pattern in changing tidal conditions. CJ shares his thoughts on Potomac River spawning windows, spring bass fishing, chatterbait fishing, Thunder Cricket setups, fluorocarbon vs. braid, and how to target quality bass when the river is not producing the giant bags anglers are used to seeing.
Toward the end of the show, we explore another unique Maryland tidal bass fishery: the Patuxent River. CJ introduces us to the Pax River Elite Series, fishing around Jug Bay and Jackson’s Landing, and how the Patuxent River offers a completely different style of Maryland bass fishing with muddy water, current, laydowns, lily pads, hard cover, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, snakehead, stripers, and catfish. We also compare the Patuxent River to other tidal fisheries like the James River and Chickahominy River and discuss how fishing tight tidal creeks can help anglers become better tournament fishermen.
If you want to learn more about Potomac River bass fishing, tidal river bass fishing, BFL tournament fishing, Maryland bass fishing, Patuxent River fishing, grass fishing, hard cover fishing, chatterbait fishing, low tide bass fishing, spring bass fishing, pressured tidal fisheries, and how to catch more bass in tough tournament conditions, this episode is packed with local knowledge, tournament insight, and real-world fishing experience from CJ Craft.

If you’re interested in Chesapeake Bay bass fishing, Upper Bay tournament fishing, Susquehanna Flats bass fishing, the Northeast River, the Sassafras River, the Potomac River, or learning how to catch more bass on grass flats, tidal rivers, and pressured tournament water, this episode is loaded with insight.
Duke shares his story of growing up in Central Pennsylvania, learning the Upper Chesapeake Bay, and becoming a serious bass tournament angler on one of the most unique and humbling fisheries in the country. We talk about what makes the Upper Bay so different from other bodies of water, why it fishes smaller than people think, how local anglers approach tidal largemouth bass, and why confidence, timing, and decision-making are everything when fishing a tidal system.
We dive deep into why the Upper Chesapeake Bay is fishing so good right now, including the rise in big tournament bags, healthier average-size bass, strong year classes, and why the Bay may currently be out-fishing the Potomac River in overall quality. Duke also breaks down how recent events like the BFL Northeast Division, Susquehanna Fishing Tackle tournaments, local team trails, and major bass fishing tournaments on the Chesapeake Bay have shown just how strong this fishery has become.
This episode covers key bass fishing tips for tidal water, including how to fish changing tides, how flood tides impact grass flats, how bass position on current, how fishing pressure changes tournament strategy, and why the best areas on the Upper Bay often come down to the Susquehanna Flats, Northeast River, Sassafras River, Elk River, grass beds, hard cover, docks, pads, and clean water adjustments. Duke also shares his thoughts on fishing crowded water, making long runs, dealing with rough water, and why the Upper Bay can humble even the best anglers.
If you fish the Chesapeake Bay, Upper Chesapeake Bay, Susquehanna Flats, Northeast River, Sassafras River, Potomac River, James River, or any tidal bass fishery, this episode is packed with tournament-level information on largemouth bass fishing, tidal bass fishing, grass fishing, tournament strategy, bass fishing electronics, forward-facing sonar, fishing pressure, tide timing, and how to catch more bass in the Mid-Atlantic.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I am joined by Ben Ricks, Assistant Chief of Fisheries Management and Coastal Region Supervisor with the Inland Fisheries Division of the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission. Ben is also one of the hosts of Better Fishing with 2 Bald Biologists, and he brings a fisheries biologist’s perspective to one of the most talked-about bass fishing destinations in the country.
We start the episode with a broad overview of North Carolina bass fishing, including the different types of opportunities anglers can find across the state — from inland lakes and rivers to coastal river systems loaded with largemouth bass potential.
Then, around the 25-minute mark, we dive into a full breakdown of the Roanoke River, Pasquotank River, Albemarle Sound, and the surrounding connected waters leading into the Bassmaster Elite Series event on the Pasquotank River/Albemarle Sound.
This fishery exploded onto the national bass fishing scene after the 2025 Bassmaster Elite event, where Kyle Welcher put together a historic performance with over 118 pounds and won by more than 45 pounds. But with the 2026 Bassmaster Elite event taking place in June instead of April, anglers could face a completely different challenge.
In this episode, we talk about what makes the Pasquotank River and Albemarle Sound so unique, including wind-driven water movement, connected rivers and creeks, forage, largemouth bass behavior, coastal North Carolina habitat, and why this fishery has the potential to produce giant tournament bags.
If you are a Bassmaster fan, tournament angler, North Carolina bass fisherman, or someone who loves learning about fisheries management and bass behavior, this episode will give you a deeper look at one of the most unpredictable and exciting stops on the Bassmaster Elite Series schedule.

May is Melanoma and Skin Cancer Awareness Month, and on this important episode of Fishing the DMV, I am joined by Mercy Viator, Dermatology Certified Nurse Practitioner, to talk about two of the most dangerous threats facing anglers, hunters, hikers, kayakers, campers, and outdoor people everywhere: skin cancer and ticks/Lyme disease.
When most people think about outdoor danger, they usually think about bad weather, rough water, accidents, hooks, wildlife, or getting lost. But the truth is, two of the biggest long-term health risks for people who spend a lot of time outside are sun exposure that can lead to skin cancer and tick bites that can lead to Lyme disease. These are serious outdoor health risks that every angler, hunter, and outdoorsman needs to take seriously before their next trip.
In this episode, we break down why preparation matters, how to better protect yourself, and why prevention should be part of your regular fishing, hunting, hiking, and outdoor routine. Anglers are especially exposed because we spend long hours on the water under direct sunlight, reflected UV rays, and constantly changing weather conditions. We discuss the importance of routine skin checks, early detection, sun safety, and making UV protection a non-negotiable part of your gear.
Mercy shares insight on the right type of sunscreen for fishing, how often you should reapply it, what sun-protective clothing actually helps, and why wide-brim hats, face coverings, sunglasses, gloves, and lightweight UV gear should be treated just like rods, reels, tackle, life jackets, and safety equipment. Whether you’re fishing a tournament, bank fishing a local pond, wading a river, kayaking, or spending all day on the boat, protecting yourself from the sun is one of the most important things you can do to stay healthy for the long run.
We also dive into ticks and Lyme disease, another major threat for anyone who spends time outdoors across the Mid-Atlantic and beyond. If you fish from the bank, hike through wooded trails, hunt, camp, kayak, or walk through tall grass to reach your favorite spot, tick prevention needs to be on your radar. Lyme disease can have serious long-term effects, and we discuss practical steps you can take to reduce your risk, check yourself after outdoor adventures, and make sure you are prepared before heading outside.
The goal of this episode is simple: help anglers, hunters, and outdoor people understand that preparation can make all the difference. You can’t always control the sun, the weather, the woods, or the water, but you can control whether you wear the right clothing, use the right sunscreen, check for ticks, and build smart habits that protect your health.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves fishing, hunting, hiking, kayaking, camping, boating, or spending time outside. Protecting yourself from skin cancer and Lyme disease is not optional — it is part of being prepared.
Topics covered in this episode include:
Skin Cancer Awareness Month
Melanoma prevention for anglers
Why sun exposure is dangerous for fishermen
Sun safety while fishing
Best sunscreen habits for outdoor people
UV fishing clothing and sun-protective gear
Fishing hats, face masks, gloves, and sunglasses
Why anglers should get routine skin checks
Tick prevention for fishermen, hunters, and hikers
Lyme disease awareness in the outdoors
How to check yourself for ticks after fishing or hunting
Outdoor safety tips for the Mid-Atlantic fishing community
Whether you fish the Potomac River, Shenandoah River, Susquehanna River, Chesapeake Bay, Lake Anna, Smith Mountain Lake, Buggs Island, the Upper James River, or your local pond, this episode is a reminder that protecting your health is part of being prepared on the water, in the woods, and anywhere the outdoors takes you.
On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I am joined by Mercy Viator, Dermatology Certified Nurse Practitioner.

On this emergency upload — and possibly the shortest episode in Fishing the DMV history — I’m joined by Clint Outlaw to break down the latest information surrounding the Gardy’s Mill Pond Dam breach, the ongoing Gardy’s Mill Road / Route 617 closure, and the growing community effort to protect this historic Virginia fishery from being permanently lost.
Gardy’s Millpond, located near Callao, Virginia on the Northumberland and Westmoreland County line, has been impacted by a serious dam breach near the primary spillway box culvert. The Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (DWR) is currently working on an interim repair and stabilization plan while engineers evaluate the full extent of the damage.
In this episode, we discuss what is currently known about the dam failure, why the pond may need to be drained, what the trench through the dam could mean for the future of the lake, and why anglers, local residents, and conservation-minded outdoorsmen are signing a petition to help make sure Gardy’s Mill Pond is not completely destroyed.
DWR has stated that the pond level has not yet dropped below the breach area, which means engineers still cannot fully assess the damage. In the meantime, contractors are expected to construct a trench through the dam down to the pond bed. This would help drain the pond, reveal the breach location, relieve pressure on the dam, protect the structure from further erosion, and reduce the need for daily safety monitoring.
We also cover the upcoming public open house for Gardy’s Millpond, where the public will be invited to review potential plans and speak directly with DWR staff and engineers.
📍 Gardy’s Millpond Public Open House
Date: Thursday, May 28
Time: 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Location: Callao Fire Department
Address: 314 Northumberland Highway, Callao, VA 22435
If you fish Gardy’s Millpond, live near the Northern Neck, care about Virginia public fishing access, or want to protect small historic fisheries across the region, this is an important episode to watch and share.
🎣 Topics Covered:
• Gardy’s Mill Pond Dam breach update
• Gardy’s Mill Road / Route 617 closure
• Virginia DWR interim repair plan
• Public access and boat ramp closure
• Potential draining of Gardy’s Millpond
• Petition to save Gardy’s Mill Pond
• Community meeting and open house details
• Northern Neck Virginia fishing access

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Capt. Todd Bellamy of FishPit Charters, one of the most experienced and passionate Chesapeake Bay charter captains on the water. Capt. Todd operates primarily around Tangier Sound, Smith Island, Fishing Bay, and the main stem of the Chesapeake Bay, and in this episode he gives us a full late May into June fishing report for one of the most unique and productive sections of the Bay.
We break down what is happening right now in the middle-to-lower Chesapeake Bay region, especially around Tangier Island, Smith Island, the grass flats, marsh islands, creek mouths, hard-bottom areas, and main Bay edges. This is the time of year when the Chesapeake Bay really starts to transition, with warming water temperatures, expanding grass beds, baitfish movement, and multiple species becoming active at the same time.
Capt. Bellamy talks about the current bite for striped bass/rockfish, black drum, red drum, speckled trout, white perch, and shallow-water species moving through the Tangier Sound and Smith Island area. We also discuss how anglers should approach the Fishing Bay marsh system, including tidal creeks, grass lines, marsh drains, and backwater areas that can hold fish as the water warms up heading into June.
If you’re interested in Chesapeake Bay fishing, Tangier Sound fishing reports, Smith Island fishing, Fishing Bay Maryland, rockfish fishing, red drum fishing, black drum fishing, speckled trout fishing, white perch fishing, tidal marsh fishing, or late spring fishing patterns, this episode is packed with information.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Jarrod Egolf and Justin Cremisio, the owners of J2 Fishing Company, to talk about their story, their mission, the upcoming Fighting to Fishing Charity Tournament, and a brand-new fishing product they are bringing to market.
J2 Fishing Company started with two kids from Eldersburg, Maryland — shoutout to those E-Burg roots — fishing local waters like Piney Run Reservoir and Liberty Reservoir. What began as a shared love for fishing turned into a lifelong brotherhood, and nearly 30 years later, Jarrod and Justin are using that passion to build something bigger than just a fishing brand.
In this episode, we dive into how J2 Fishing Company was founded, why fishing can be a powerful outlet for stress, mental clarity, healing, and purpose, and how reconnecting with the outdoors can change lives. Their message is built around faith, family, country, trust, mindset, and the belief that there is no limit to human potential.
We also discuss their mission to help others heal through fishing — one cast, one breath, and one moment at a time — along with the meaning behind the Fighting to Fishing Charity Tournament and how anglers can get involved.

On this action-packed episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by NVKBA angler Nathan Updike, fresh off an incredible victory at the 2026 NVKBA Shenandoah River kayak bass fishing tournament! Nathan broke down an absolutely dominant performance, putting together an impressive 89.50-inch limit against one of the most stacked fields we’ve ever seen on the Shenandoah River.
NVKBA’s first river event of the 2026 trail season proved once again why the Shenandoah River is considered one of the best smallmouth bass fisheries on the East Coast for kayak fishing, river fishing, and tournament bass fishing. With mostly overcast skies and late-day rain showers keeping conditions perfect, 65 anglers combined to catch an incredible 262 smallmouth bass throughout the day.
Even more impressive, anglers recorded 5 Virginia citation smallmouth bass during the event, showcasing just how healthy and productive the Shenandoah River fishery continues to be. Along with giant bronzebacks, competitors also reported catching walleye, largemouth bass, and catfish while covering miles of moving water in search of winning fish.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with Billy Kohls of Smith Mountain Lake Guide Service to break down a can’t-miss Smith Mountain Lake fishing report and a masterclass on spring to early summer bass fishing transitions.
We dive deep into one of the most important—and often misunderstood—patterns in bass fishing: the shad spawn. Billy explains exactly how to identify a shad spawn, when it happens during the late spring to early summer window (May–June transition), and how to turn it into a tournament-winning pattern whether you’re fishing Smith Mountain Lake, the Potomac River, or any bass fishery across the country.
If you’re into Bassmaster-style tournament fishing, this episode is loaded with actionable insight. We cover shad spawn patterns, key bait selections, how to locate active fish during low-light feeding windows, and how to adjust once the bite shuts off. Billy also breaks down how to approach a lake strategically during this seasonal shift—giving you a blueprint for consistent summertime bass fishing success.

On this action-packed episode of Fishing the DMV, we break down the 2026 NVKBA Trail Stop II – “Battle of Five Lakes I”, where anglers spread out across five of Northern Virginia’s top fisheries: the Occoquan Reservoir, Lake Frederick, Sleeter Lake, Germantown Lake, and Burke Lake.
Fishing conditions were a little slower than expected, but steady enough for anglers to grind it out and put together solid limits across all five lakes. When it was all said and done, it was Jonathon Mehus, the 2022 Angler of the Year, who separated himself from the field with an impressive 88.00 inches to take home the win.
The key decision? Jonathon committed to the 2,100-acre Occoquan Reservoir, a highly technical fishery known for its standing timber, dock lines, creek channel swings, and bluff walls—and it paid off in a big way.
In this episode, Jonathon gives a full, in-depth Occoquan Reservoir fishing report, breaking down:
How he located and patterned bass in tough conditions
Key areas that produced (including timber and bluff wall structure)
Lure selection, adjustments, and decision-making throughout the day
Why Occoquan stood out compared to the other four lakes in the tournament
Tournament strategy tips that helped him close out the win
If you’re looking to unlock the secrets of one of Northern Virginia’s most consistent bass fisheries, this is a must-listen breakdown packed with real tournament-winning insight.
Whether you're a kayak angler, tournament fisherman, or just love learning new water, this episode delivers the exact strategy and mindset needed to compete at a high level.

On this data-driven episode of Fishing the DMV, I have on PA Biologist Geoffrey Smith as we break down the Susquehanna River smallmouth bass fishery using real insights from biologists and the latest 2025 survey data to give you a true Susquehanna River fishing report heading into 2026. If you’re serious about river smallmouth fishing, tournament kayak fishing, or preparing for your next Bassmaster kayak tournament, this is the episode you can’t afford to miss.
We dive deep into the Middle Susquehanna, Lower Susquehanna, North Branch, and Juniata River systems, explaining how each section fishes differently and what that means for kayak bass fishing strategy, smallmouth bass patterns, and tournament success. Using electrofishing data and population metrics, we analyze catch rates (CPUE), size structure, and age class distribution to show you exactly where the fishery stands today and how it impacts your time on the water.
According to the latest fisheries management data, all major sections of the river are currently meeting their biological objectives—meaning the Susquehanna River smallmouth population is stable, healthy, and producing strong year classes . We break down what that actually means for anglers, including why the river continues to be one of the best destinations on the East Coast for smallmouth bass fishing, kayak fishing tournaments, and multi-fish limit events.
Beyond bass, we touch on emerging opportunities in the Susquehanna system, including:
If you’re into smallmouth bass fishing, kayak bass tournaments, river bass fishing techniques, fishing reports, and tournament strategy, this is one of the most important breakdowns we’ve ever done.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with Buggs Island Alpha Series Champion Billy Shelton to break down a high-level tournament bass fishing masterclass that every angler needs to hear!
Competing against 82 of the region’s best sticks, anglers were faced with a brutal cold front bass fishing scenario, with temperatures dropping nearly 35 degrees overnight—classic post-frontal conditions that typically shut down the bite. But despite the odds, Billy Shelton delivered an elite-level performance, bringing in a 20.43 lb tournament-winning bag to claim victory.
His dominant day earned him $11,000 in tournament winnings, plus an additional $10,000 contingency bonus from Vexus Boats, totaling an incredible $21,000 payday in a one-day bass fishing tournament.
In this episode, Billy breaks down his entire approach—from patterning bass in changing weather conditions to dialing in the right fishing tackle setup and choosing the best bass fishing lures for success. He reveals how he located fish early in main lake bays, stayed on an aggressive bite, and capitalized using chatterbaits to trigger reaction strikes—one of the most effective bass fishing techniques for pressured fish.
We also dive into:
• Tournament fishing strategies used by top-level anglers
• Bassmaster-style decision making in high-pressure events
• How to adjust your bass fishing setup during a cold front
• The importance of lure selection, including when to throw moving baits vs. slowing down
• Proven fishing tips and techniques to help you catch more largemouth bass

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we break down one of the most underrated bass fishing destinations in the Mid-Atlantic—Lake Gaston on the North Carolina–Virginia border—and why this fishery is quickly turning into a tournament bass fishing powerhouse. Nestled between Buggs Island (Kerr Lake) and Roanoke Rapids Lake, Lake Gaston has quietly become a hotspot thanks to the ongoing F1 largemouth bass stocking program, now entering its third year. With explosive growth rates and elite genetics, this lake is on track to produce consistent 25-30 lb tournament bags in the next 5-6 years ! making it a must-watch destination for serious anglers.
We dive deep into a Lake Gaston fishing report with tournament angler Brody, who breaks down his team’s winning tournament strategy and how they cracked the code during practice. From dialing in a precise dock fishing pattern to identifying key staging areas, this episode is loaded with advanced bass fishing tips and techniques that apply to both weekend anglers and competitive fishermen.
Brody shares how they got locked into a specific dock pattern bite during official practice and capitalized on it during tournament day to secure their first win in a highly competitive field. We cover his go-to fishing tackle, including his highly effective minnow-style rig setup, rod and reel choices, and how subtle adjustments in presentation made all the difference.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with Kerr Lake native and professional catfish guide Tim from King’s Catfishing Guide Service to break down everything you need to know about catfish fishing on Kerr Lake (Buggs Island Lake)—one of the top trophy catfish fisheries in the entire country.
Born and raised around Kerr Lake, Tim started fishing at just 10 years old alongside his grandfather, where he quickly developed a passion for catfishing, freshwater fishing, and targeting giant blue catfish. As a teenager, he took things to the next level—launching his own kayak and dialing in his approach to kayak catfishing, drift fishing, anchored fishing, and structure fishing. Over time, he refined his techniques and built a reputation for consistently catching trophy blue catfish, flathead catfish, and channel catfish.
In this episode, Tim gives us an in-depth breakdown of Kerr Lake catfishing patterns, seasonal movements, and proven tactics to help you catch more fish. We dive into:
• The best areas on Kerr Lake to target big catfish
• How to locate fish using electronics, sonar, and side imaging
• The most effective catfish baits (cut bait, live bait, and fresh shad)
• When to use drift fishing vs anchoring techniques
• How weather, current, and water temperature impact the bite
• Gear setups including catfish rods, reels, rigs, and terminal tackle
Tim also shares stories from the water—including a jaw-dropping 130-pound blue catfish caught on a guided trip—and explains what it takes to consistently land fish of that caliber on Kerr Lake.
Since launching King’s Catfishing Guide Service and his YouTube channel in 2017, Tim has guided hundreds of successful trips and takes pride in introducing beginners, kids, and families to the sport of catfishing and outdoor fishing adventures.

If you're into saltwater kayak fishing, inshore fishing Maryland, or targeting species like striped bass, red drum, flounder, and speckled trout, this episode is loaded with actionable insight.
We also explore the highly talked-about blackwater fishing in Maryland, including tannin-stained rivers and low-visibility systems across the Eastern Shore. Learn why these dark water fisheries hold big fish, how to adjust your bass fishing techniques, and what lures and presentations excel in stained water and low-visibility conditions. This is a must-listen for anglers targeting largemouth bass in blackwater, tidal river fishing, and Eastern Shore bass fishing hotspots.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we’re joined by legendary kayak angler and river smallmouth expert Jeff Little to break down everything you need to know about springtime river smallmouth bass fishing in the Mid-Atlantic.
Jeff shares his deep knowledge of pre-spawn smallmouth bass behavior, how rising spring water temperatures influence feeding patterns, and where anglers should look to find fish as they move from wintering holes into staging areas and spawning habitat. We also dive into how different river bottoms—rock, gravel, ledge, and current seams—affect smallmouth spawning and holding areas throughout the spring season.
The conversation covers several iconic Mid-Atlantic smallmouth fisheries, including the Upper Potomac River, Susquehanna River, Shenandoah River, and even the often overlooked Upper Rappahannock River, which is quietly becoming a productive smallmouth fishery. Jeff explains how river flow, structure, and current breaks influence where bass position during the pre-spawn and spawn, and how anglers can adjust their tactics to consistently catch river smallmouth this time of year.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I welcome back Dean Naujoks of the Potomac Riverkeeper Network for a direct update on the 2026 Potomac River sewage spill following the January 19 sewer line collapse near Clara Barton Parkway. We discuss independent water quality testing, elevated E. coli levels, public health concerns, and the long-term environmental impact of hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage entering the Potomac River and C&O Canal.
We break down the debate over EPA safety limits, downstream testing at major recreation areas, and how DC Water and the Maryland Department of the Environment are responding. Is the Potomac safe for bass fishing, boating, kayaking, and recreation? What does this mean for shellfish closures, fish health, tourism, and local businesses across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.?

On this action-packed episode of Fishing the DMV, we head deep into southwest Virginia fishing country to explore one of the most overlooked bass fishing lakes in Virginia — Claytor Lake. I’m joined by local angler Collier Alderman as we break down seasonal patterns, electronics strategy, and tournament-level decision making on this clear water mountain reservoir formed by the New River.
If you love bass fishing, offshore structure fishing, and learning how modern technology is changing the sport, this episode is for you. We use Livescope fishing to locate suspended fish, track bait movement, and identify high-percentage areas just like you’d see in today’s Bassmasters tournament fishing scene. From rocky banks and steep bluff walls to main-lake channels and creek arms, Claytor sets up perfectly for both shallow power fishing and deep finesse presentations.
We dive into how to target smallmouth bass and largemouth bass year-round, when to fish prespawn transitions, and why this lake quietly produces serious tournament-quality fish despite rarely being talked about in the Virginia bass fishing conversation.
Claytor Lake might be forgotten — but after this, it won’t be.

On this special bass fishing episode of Fishing the DMV, we revisit one of the most heartfelt and inspiring fishing stories in our channel history. In August, we lost Charlie Taylor at 86 — a bass fishing legend whose impact on the freshwater fishing community will live on. Charlie was the founder of Lots-A-Luck Bassmasters and New Horizon Bass Anglers, and was instrumental in creating the New Horizon Bass Anglers Youth Foundation, which hosts one of the longest-running youth fishing derbies in the country at Lake Fairfax — a must-see kids fishing event for anglers of all ages.
Charlie’s passion for bass fishing techniques, fishing education, and mentoring young anglers made him a beloved fixture in the community. He loved sharing fishing tips, telling incredible fishing tales, and helping both beginners and seasoned anglers improve their game — from bass boat strategy to lure selection, casting techniques, and more.
Charlie also made memorable appearances at the Dale City Fishing and Flea Market Show — an annual fishing expo held Saturday, January 31 from 8 AM to 1 PM at the local fire department — and his presence will be dearly missed.
In this episode, I’m honored to share my interview with Charlie Taylor, where he recounts how his love for fishing began back in 1970. As a supervisor with 7-Eleven, a store manager told him he needed a hobby… and that conversation sparked a lifelong bass fishing obsession that defined his life.
This episode is a tribute to a man whose dedication to bass fishing tips, youth fishing education, and the angling community helped shape the lives of countless fishermen and women. Whether you’re here for freshwater fishing content, bass fishing techniques, or inspirational fishing stories, this episode honors a true icon of the sport.
Don’t miss this legacy-filled bass fishing interview and celebration of one of the greats in our community. 🎣🔥

On this urgent and important episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Dean Naujoks of the Potomac Riverkeeper to discuss a major Potomac River environmental emergency that every angler, boater, and outdoor recreationist in the Mid-Atlantic needs to know about.
As of this week, an estimated 60 million gallons of raw, untreated sewage per day has been discharging into the Potomac River due to a catastrophic failure of a major sanitary sewer interceptor line in Montgomery County, Maryland. The break occurred near Lockhouse 10 within the C&O Canal National Historical Park, sending sewage directly into one of the most heavily fished rivers in the Mid-Atlantic.
In this episode, we cover:
· The Potomac River sewage spill and what caused the interceptor line failure
· How the raw sewage overflow is impacting water quality, fish populations, and aquatic habitat
· Current water sampling results, E. coli concerns, and public health risks
· How DC Water is responding and working to divert and contain the sewage spill
· What this means for Potomac River bass fishing, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, and recreational fishing
At the time of recording, D.C. Water is actively responding to the sanitary sewer overflow, but all untreated sewage is still flowing into the Potomac River near Lock 10.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Alex Thigpen and Shockley Hiatt — two rising hammers representing the next generation of competitive bass fishing. 🎣🔥
These young anglers aren’t just great on the water — they’re competing at the highest levels of high school bass fishing. Both have fished in major B.A.S.S. Strike King Bassmaster High School Series events, including regional qualifiers and the Bassmaster High School National Championship, where the toughest youth teams in the country battle for top honors.
We dive deep into just how advanced elite high school and college bass fishing has become, and how young competitors are rapidly separating themselves by mastering cutting-edge technology like Forward Facing Sonar (FFS). From adapting faster than ever before to reading live sonar, to developing a high-level tournament mindset at a young age, this conversation pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to compete in today’s bass fishing world.
This episode is packed with insider knowledge on youth bass fishing, competitive angling, and the evolving mental game behind tournament success. We also discuss adversity, discipline, and the lessons seasoned anglers of all levels can learn from these young competitors who are redefining the sport.
Whether you’re a weekend warrior, tournament angler, or just passionate about the future of bass fishing, this is a must-listen episode that highlights where the sport is headed — and how fast it’s changing.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down for an in-depth tournament bass fishing breakdown with James Murtha and Chris More, the newly crowned Anglers of the Year from the Lew’s Golf & Fish Club. This episode dives deep into bass fishing strategy, bass fishing patterns, and how to adapt bass fishing techniques across rivers, reservoirs, and tidal water throughout the Mid-Atlantic.
James and Chris share their bass fishing journeys—from early pond fishing, fly fishing roots, and light saltwater fishing, to becoming consistent winners in kayak bass fishing tournaments and grassroots bass fishing clubs. Their shared passion for river smallmouth bass fishing shines through, as they explain why river smallmouth remains their favorite style of fishing above largemouth bass fishing, tidal bass fishing, or reservoir bass fishing.
We recap their dominant tournament bass fishing season, highlighting wins and podium finishes across some of the most diverse bass fisheries in Virginia and the DMV:
· Lake Mooney bass fishing – 1st place (March & October)
· Occoquan Reservoir (Rez)– 1st place (April), 3rd place (June)
· Aquia Creek bass fishing – 1st place (May)
· Shenandoah River smallmouth bass fishing – 1st place (July)
· Occoquan River tidal bass fishing – 2nd place (November)
The conversation focuses heavily on how to catch bass in changing conditions, emphasizing pre-tournament homework, breaking down a fishery, and building reliable Plan A and Plan B bass fishing patterns. James and Chris explain how cold water bass fishing, tidal current bass fishing, and reservoir structure fishing all require different mindsets and lure selections.

• Key structure and vegetation
• Depth changes and offshore holding areas
• High-percentage largemouth bass locations
• Bank fishing vs kayak vs jon boat strategies
Little Seneca Lake is known for its healthy largemouth bass population, strong forage base, and diverse habitat, making it a prime destination for Maryland bass fishing, kayak fishing, and tournament practice.

Today, we dive deep into the rise of Megabass, how Japanese lure design revolutionized American bass fishing, and which jerkbaits, BFS baits, and finesse fishing lures you must have in your tackle box.
Lin breaks down decades of innovation—from the first time Japanese baits hit American waters to today’s cutting-edge Megabass jerkbait lineup dominating tournaments and pressured fisheries. We cover everything from lure action, color selection, casting performance, water-temperature triggers, cold-water patterns, gear recommendations, and how to choose the right jerkbait to catch bigger and smarter bass.
Featured Megabass Buyer’s Guide
We take a detailed look at the most influential Megabass jerkbaits on the market and why they consistently outperform in both clear-water finesse situations and aggressive reaction-bite scenarios:
Whether you're a weekend angler, a tournament fisherman, or a die-hard tackle enthusiast, this episode is packed with bass fishing tips, gear reviews, Megabass lure breakdowns, BFS fishing insights, and a complete Megabass Buyer’s Guide to help you catch more fish.
Strap in—this is your shortcut to fishing Megabass like the pros.

Welcome back to the 2nd Annual Merry Bassmas Bash Fishing Tournament!
In this episode, we bring you a full tournament standings update during one of the most exciting winter bass fishing events of the year. Anglers are grinding from November 28th at 7AM through January 3rd at Midnight, chasing giant December largemouth bass and winter smallmouth bass in cold-water conditions across the Mid-Atlantic.
This update covers everything you need to know: current leaders, biggest bass submitted, division breakdowns, and how your best 8 bass—whether largemouth or smallmouth—impact the leaderboard. With both the Largemouth/Mixed Bag Division and Smallmouth Division heating up, every fish landed in these late-fall and early-winter bass fishing patterns counts.
We also highlight cash payouts, plaques, big-fish awards in PA/MD/VA waters, and the crowd-favorite “Beat the Champion” rule, inspired by competitive bass fishing legends. Whether you're into December bass fishing tips, cold water fishing, winter river bass tactics, off-season tournament fishing, or just love watching anglers hunt giant winter fish, this episode brings the full Merry Bassmas energy.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Hunter Smith of Fishing Pro Tech for the 2025 Jig & Minnow Buyer’s Guide. Hunter breaks down everything you need to know about the most effective jig-and-minnow strolling baits, the gear that makes them shine, and the tackle setups that consistently put big bass in the boat.
The jig-minnow technique isn’t new—but it has absolutely exploded in popularity. Whether you’re mid-strolling or bottom-strolling, Hunter explains why this presentation continues to dominate across the country and how it fits perfectly into modern bass fishing. Yes, it pairs beautifully with forward-facing sonar and modern electronics… but you DO NOT need electronics to be deadly with it. This is a technique that any angler can master, regardless of their rig or experience level.
With so many companies scrambling to release new baits in this category, the noise can be overwhelming. Hunter cuts through the hype and highlights the core baits, jigheads, sizes, and profiles that consistently get bit in real-world conditions. We talk retrieve cadence, water clarity adjustments, ideal hook sizes, rod actions, and how subtle changes in body shape can completely change how a bait swims.
If you’re tired of guessing what works and want a legit roadmap to jig-and-minnow success, this is the episode. Below you’ll find links to every product we discussed, including our preferred colors, sizes, and equipment, all linking directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can view in-depth photos and specs.

In celebration of the early days of Fishing the DMV, we’re revisiting our very first two episodes — a double feature focused on the Shenandoah River and the anglers who know it best.
First, we sit down with Travis Edens of King Fisher Guide Service, a veteran river guide with more than 33 years of experience fishing, teaching, and putting clients on fish. Travis has spent over 15 years dialing in both the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers, and he shares his approach, insights, and hard-earned lessons from these renowned fisheries.
Next, we talk with Neil Quince, a dedicated local angler known for chasing mega smallmouth bass on the Shenandoah during the winter. Neil breaks down seasonal patterns, cold-water tactics, and the mindset required to consistently find trophy fish when most anglers hang it up.
Whether you’re revisiting the beginning of Fishing the DMV or discovering it for the first time, this two-part launch is packed with river knowledge and real-world experience.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we dive into the legendary story of Green Top Sporting Goods with Todd Sadler and Hunter Brooks! Green Top is one of the most iconic outdoor outfitters on the East Coast.
Founded in 1947 as a modest bait-and-gas station off Route 1, Green Top grew into a knowledge-driven hub for Virginia’s hunters, anglers, archers, and shooting sports enthusiasts. We explore how a simple green-roofed shop became a destination retailer with a 67,000 sq. ft. facility in Ashland, VA that continues to serve generations of outdoorsmen and women.
From the golden era of local tackle shops, to surviving big-box competition, to becoming the heartbeat of Virginia’s outdoor community, Green Top has stayed rooted in one thing: people who actually hunt, fish, and shoot sharing real experience with the customers they serve.
We break down their evolution, the culture of expertise that keeps anglers coming back, the rise of the Green Top Outdoor Expo, and why this shop has become a staple for tournament anglers across the DMV, the James, the Potomac, and beyond.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with Matt Downs of Tricked tins. Who the 3rd Annual Speckled Trout Tournament on the Elizabeth River. Matt just experienced the kind of tournament day every fisherman dreams of. After a decade of grinding on the ER, he shattered his longtime personal best speckled trout of 5.5 lbs — landing an absolute giant in the 7-pound class and securing a tournament bag of 14.12 lbs.
Despite a brutally tough day on the water — including three missed quality fish and a three-hour stretch without a single bite, he fought through the grind and still brought home the hardware.
We dive into his decision to take this tournament seriously for the first time, the strategy behind his success, and why this championship run is one he’ll never forget. He also shares his appreciation for longtime friend and event host Bucky Osborne, reflecting on their history and Bucky’s growing impact in the fishing industry.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined once again by Pennsylvania kayak hammer Jake Harshman for a raw and unfiltered conversation about everything happening on the Susquehanna River and across the kayak fishing scene.
We dive deep into how the Susquehanna is fishing this fall — breaking down current water levels, seasonal patterns, and what anglers should expect heading into winter. Jake shares his insights on bait selection, key stretches of the river, and what separates consistent tournament success from frustration on one of the most dynamic smallmouth fisheries in the country.
But that’s not all — we also tackle the recent controversies and chaos shaking up the kayak bass fishing world. From cheating scandals to integrity issues in online events, we give our honest takes on what’s happening behind the scenes and where the sport needs to go from here.

On this shocking episode of Fishing the DMV, we uncover one of the biggest cheating scandals in kayak fishing history the Jacob Housman story. I’m joined by Jake Harshman as we break down the full chain of events that rocked the NYKBF community and the larger kayak fishing world.
In the June 2025 NYKBF month-long online event, Housman submitted a suspicious photo of a large smallmouth bass caught from what appeared to be a cheap green kayak. Despite initial doubts, Tournament Director Nick Tammaro approved the fish at the time.
A month later, red flags exploded across social media when Housman posted a nearly identical fish from the St. Lawrence River on his Instagram, except this time, it was clearly photographed on the deck of his aluminum Bass Tracker boat.
Soon, forensic photo analysis and surveillance footage revealed a shocking discovery: Housman had rigged cut-out kayak pieces onto the back deck of his boat to fake kayak submissions. On November 9, 2025, Housman confessed to the deception, returning his $200 in winnings to NYKBF.
However, this confession may only scratch the surface. Over the last two years, there’s no way of truly knowing how much money Housman may have stolen from other competitors through this elaborate scheme — casting a dark shadow over countless events and anglers who played by the rules.
As a result, NYKBF, NY Slay Nation, PA Kayak Bass Nation, PA Slay Nation, and TourneyX have all issued a lifetime ban, permanently barring Housman from all kayak and online-format fishing tournaments.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I travel to the Cushwa Cold Water Fish Hatchery in Williamsport, Maryland, to sit down with Greg Anderson, Coldwater Fisheries Production Manager, and Matt Lawrence, Coldwater Fisheries Biologist with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Together, we dive deep into the heart of Maryland’s trout fishing scene and uncover the science, strategy, and passion behind the Maryland Trout Stocking Program.
From the logistics of “put-and-take” rainbow trout fisheries to the careful protection of native brook trout streams and Maryland’s hidden gem brown trout waters, this episode is packed with insider knowledge for anglers of all levels. We spotlight some of the state’s most prized trout waters, including the Gunpowder River watershed in Baltimore County—home to Bee Tree Run, Little Falls, Western Run, and the legendary mainstem stretch between Prettyboy and Loch Raven Reservoirs. We also explore Maryland’s brook trout strongholds, from the Catoctin Mountains to the upper Savage River system in Garrett County, where anglers can find the state’s densest populations of wild trout. Whether you’re a seasoned fly angler or new to cold-water fishing, this episode offers a fascinating look into how Maryland manages, protects, and enhances its world-class trout fisheries.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV revisit in old episode from a couple years ago that is extremely topical sense. The invasive Alabama Bass was found in Smith Mountain Lake this past week!! I have the privilege to head to the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources headquarters in Richmond to discuss the invasive Alabama Bass problem. The Alabama Bass represents a tremendous threat to Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass fisheries. Alabama bass negatively impact smallmouth bass by outcompeting them for resources, hybridizing with them to the point of replacing the native species, and creating fisheries with smaller adult bass.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with Dave Hart to dive deep into the current state of some of North Carolina’s most talked-about fisheries — from Hyco Lake’s summer flooding and warm-water conditions, to the rise of Alabama bass in Lake Mackintosh, and the uncertain future surrounding Shearon Harris.
We also touch on the “team tournament” scene, my infamous 114-inch bag, and even the big industry shake-ups — like the potential White River/Bass Pro acquisition of Hobie.
Dave and I swap stories and observations about these legendary Carolina waters:
· Hyco Lake — a 3,700-acre power-plant reservoir known for year-round bass and crappie fishing but hit hard by flooding and oxygen challenges this summer.
· Mayo Lake — a 2,800-acre gem offering both tournament-level bass fishing and scenic camping getaways.
· Lake Waccamaw — a shallow Carolina Bay full of cypress trees, lily pads, and a unique mix of perch, panfish, and bass that make it one of the most distinctive fisheries in the state.
From fisheries management to flood recovery and the culture of competitive angling in the Carolinas, this episode captures the pulse of the region’s evolving fishing scene.

On this exciting Monday Night Live of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by tournament angler Matt McCluskey, fresh off a Top 10 finish in the Potomac River Toyota Series. Matt gives us a behind-the-scenes look at how he pieced together his tournament success, breaking down the baits, areas, and decisions that made the difference.
We also dive deep into what makes the fall season on the Potomac River so unique. As the water cools and daylight shortens, bass begin chasing baitfish aggressively, setting up some of the best feeding opportunities of the year. From grass flats loaded with shad, to main-river points where smallmouth stack up, Matt shares how to adapt to these seasonal movements and maximize your time on the water.
He explains how current, tide, and water clarity can play huge roles in fall success on the Potomac — and how knowing when to target shallow grass lines versus deeper channel edges is the key to consistency. Whether you’re a weekend angler looking for your next fall pattern or a tournament fisherman trying to put the puzzle together, Matt’s tips will give you a serious edge.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with Susquehanna River legend Joe Raymond for an in-depth conversation about his life, his guiding career, and how the river is fishing this fall. Joe has been a staple on the Susquehanna since 2012, building his reputation as one of the most respected anglers and guides on the river.
From wading small creeks as a kid to buying his first boat in his 20s, Joe’s journey has always led back to the Susquehanna. Over the years, he’s developed an unmatched instinct for reading current, locating structure, and consistently finding fish—skills that have made him both a sought-after guide and a proven tournament competitor.
In this episode, Joe shares a fall Susquehanna River fishing report, insight into what makes this fishery so unique, and stories from his life on the water. We also dive into his career milestone on September 22, 2024, when he landed the biggest recorded smallmouth bass ever caught on the Susquehanna: a 24-inch, 7.08 lb giant during a Bassmaster Open in Williamsport.

On this exciting episode, I’m joined by Andrew Blair, owner of Tactical Fishing Company. Snakehead fishing has exploded in popularity across the Mid-Atlantic, fueled by federal funding for invasive species programs in Maryland and Virginia and a huge push encouraging anglers to remove snakehead from our waters. But alongside that, an equally passionate community of anglers has emerged dedicated not just to catching snakehead, but also to celebrating and advocating for their protecting this unique species!!
Andrew and I dive into what makes the snakehead fishing culture so unique, from the controversy around their presence to the thrill of targeting these hard-fighting fish. Andrew also shares his personal journey—transitioning from service in the U.S. Army, to becoming a kayakangler, and ultimately founding Tactical Fishing Company.
If you’ve ever been curious about the culture, controversy, and passion behind snakehead fishing, this is an episode you won’t want to miss!

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Dave Miller to dive into one of the most heated conservation debates facing our waters today overspray of herbicides in our local bodies of water. We tackle a hot-button issue shaking up the fishing and conservation community: The decision to use diquat dibromide—a federally approved herbicide that’s banned in the European Union—to combat the spread of subaquatic grass has sparked serious concerns. Critics warn it is creating ecological disasters, killing fish in lakes, making people sick, and even causing the deaths of pets.
A recent opinion piece slammed the move as reckless and undemocratic, arguing that spraying chemicals into public waterways risks fish kills, long-term ecological damage, and public health concerns. Critics point out the decision was made quietly by federal and state agencies, without town halls, public consent, or community input, raising serious questions about accountability.
Even more concerning, this is part of a pilot program that could expand to other states if considered successful—potentially setting a precedent for how invasive species are managed nationwide. Meanwhile, alternatives such as mechanical removal and less toxic treatments have largely been overlooked.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by two incredible anglers—Matt Strykul of SB Fishing and Matt McCluskey. We dive into how each of their seasons is shaping up and what it takes to compete at such high levels of tournament fishing.
Strykul is grinding through nearly 78 tournament trails a year, including the highly competitive Elite 70s and Elite 70s Alpha circuits. Meanwhile, McCluskey is stepping up to the big stage in his first year fishing the Toyota Series, bringing new challenges and opportunities. We’re going to shoot the shit talk about their season so far, and answer all your questions!!
From the lessons they’ve learned to the goals they’re chasing, this episode takes you behind the scenes of two very different tournament journeys—and gives you a look at the mindset it takes to succeed in competitive bass fishing.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Brian Collins, an Eastern Shore native and administrator of the Facebook group Menhaden – Little Fish, Big Deal!. Together, we tackle one of the Chesapeake Bay’s most pressing and controversial topics: the fight over menhaden.
Often called “the most important fish in the sea,” menhaden are vital to the Bay’s ecosystem—filtering water and serving as a primary food source for striped bass, osprey, bluefish, and countless other species. But menhaden are also the target of one of the largest industrial fisheries on the East Coast, with millions harvested each year and processed into fish oil and animal feed.
Brian and I dig into the clash between the billion dollar Omega Protein corporation, and conservation advocates who warn that removing too many menhaden is weakening the striped bass population and destabilizing the Bay’s food web. From quota battles and Bay-specific harvest caps to the rise of ecosystem-based management, we unpack the science, politics, and passion fueling this long-standing conflict.
If you care about the future of striped bass, the health of the Chesapeake Bay, or just want to understand how one small fish can spark such a big fight—this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we revisit an old old episode and head back to the Chesapeake Bay. Specifically, the Virginia portion of Chesapeake Bay with Chris Moore. Chris previously served as the Senior Regional Ecosystem Scientist at the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) and has assumed the role of Executive Director at the CBF Virginia office. Mr. Moore played a pivotal role in establishing sustainable fisheries for striped bass, Atlantic menhaden, and blue crabs, while also contributing to oyster policy and restoration endeavors. Additionally, Moore's advocacy efforts with elected officials at local, state, and federal levels have been instrumental in influencing legislative decisions crucial for enhancing the health of the Bay watershed.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we break down the 2025 fish sampling survey results for Virginia’s Upper James River with Hunter Hatcher with the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources.
The James River—Virginia’s largest—begins where the Cowpasture and Jackson Rivers meet in Botetourt County and winds through the Allegheny and Blue Ridge Mountains before flowing past Lynchburg, Richmond, and into the Chesapeake Bay. Today, we’re focusing on the non-tidal Upper James, a stunning 90-mile stretch from its mountain headwaters to the 14th Street Bridge in Richmond—famous for its world-class smallmouth bass fishery.
In this episode, we cover:
· Smallmouth Bass Update – 2024 electrofishing surveys show increased catch rates and strong year classes from 2021 and 2023. Over 1,500 bass were sampled in fall 2024, with 60% at “catchable size” (7”+), and 20% topping 14 inches.
· Spawning Trends – Above-average spawns in 3 of the last 4 years point to solid fishing opportunities in the coming seasons, but consistent spawning is key to reaching the abundance levels anglers remember.
· Fishing Tips – Where to find less-pressured stretches of river for trophy smallmouth action.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by local legend Kendall Osborne to uncover one of the best-kept secrets in Virginia's Chesapeake Bay and Eastern shore saltwater scene—the growing Tarpon fishery in our own backyard!
Kendall dives into what makes this fishery so unique, when and where tarpon show up in Virginia waters, and why this seasonal phenomenon (June through August, sometimes September) is drawing the attention of adventurous anglers.
But with this exciting opportunity comes responsibility.
Tarpon are a fragile species, especially in areas like Virginia where the fishery is still developing. We’ll cover the do’s and don’ts of handling and releasing tarpon, how to fight these powerful fish properly, and the potential need to pass legislation to help protect and preserve this special fishery for generations to come!

On this eye-opening episode of Fishing the DMV, we dive headfirst into one of the most controversial topics in the sport today—is Forward Facing Sonar (FFS) really to blame for the current issues in bass fishing tournaments?
I explore the conversation from all angles by breaking down recent articles, analyzing YouTube commentary, and—most importantly—digging into five years of tournament and sales data to examine the rise of FFS and its true impact on state-level bass circuits.
But that’s not all—we’re also connecting the dots on how technology and affordability are reshaping bass fishing access for younger anglers. Here’s a quick look at the numbers:
Truck Price Comparison (Base Models – F150 XL):
· 2018: ~$27,700 (Regular cab, 3.3L V6)
· 2025: $39,645–$41,000
Ranger Bass Boat Price Comparison:
· 2018 Ranger Z520 (fiberglass Comanche): ~$40,000–$50,000
· 2025 Ranger Z520R Cup-Equipped: $86,995 base ($87,870 w/ trailer & prep)
Millennial & Gen Z Financial Pressure:
· Homeownership rate (under 36): Dropped to 36.3% by end of 2024, the lowest since 2008.
· Side hustle economy: Over 50% of Millennials & Gen Z report having at least one side hustle.
Source: The Times – Article on economic shifts
Data Sources Referenced:
· NMMA Statistics Portal
· NMMA 5-Year Summary Article
Whether you're a purist who wants FFS banned or an angler who believes in embracing the future, this episode pulls no punches and puts the debate in full context—with facts, not just feelings.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by Brian Boog, writer for Woods & Waters Magazine, as we explore the hidden bass fishing gems nestled within Virginia’s most historic region — Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown, and Hampton.
While most visitors come for the history, savvy anglers know this area is surrounded by world-class fisheries that fly under the radar:
Little Creek Reservoir – This deep, electric-only lake offers a scenic and serene setting with trophy bass potential and limited fishing pressure.
Diascund Reservoir – One of the area’s crown jewels for serious bass anglers, known for its diverse structure, consistent action, and even bowfin surprises.
Waller Mill Reservoir – A quiet escape near Williamsburg with clear water and excellent structure for largemouth bass, bluegill, and crappie.
Lee Hall Reservoir – A sleeper spot with solid numbers of bass and panfish, tucked away in Newport News near Fort Eustis.
Harwood’s Mill Reservoir – Located in York County, this underfished reservoir offers both shoreline and kayak access with strong springtime bass bites.
Whether you’re a local or planning a visit, this episode highlights the incredible freshwater fishing opportunities just minutes from colonial battlegrounds and bayfront beaches. Don’t miss this deep dive into Virginia’s Tidal Triangle — where bass fishing meets American history.

On this electrifying episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with rising bass hammer Chad Mrazek, who lit it up at the Tackle Warehouse Invitational on Virginia’s legendary James River! Chad ended the event with an epic 52 pounds 12 ounces, just shy of Keith Poche’s winning 53-pound total. But while Poche’s bite was fading, Mrazek’s momentum was surging—day by day.
We dive into Chad’s bold run-and-gun strategy to the Chickahominy River, where he focused on key river bends loaded with laydowns, bluegill beds, and hard spots. Chad breaks down how he used a 6th Sense Flush and 6th Sense Draw glide bait to do most of his damage on. From strategy shifts to bait breakdowns, this is a can't-miss episode if you want the inside scoop on how to nearly pull off the upset of the season!

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we break down how Rick McFaul of Phoenix, Maryland battled brutal conditions to claim victory at the Phoenix Bass Fishing League (BFL) Presented by T-H Marine on the Potomac River, hosted by Charles County Recreation, Parks, and Tourism.
With flooding rains, high winds, and debris-choked water threatening to derail his tournament strategy, McFaul was forced to scrap both his Plan A and B. But his Plan C—a small patch of cleaner water on the Virginia side—turned into a game-winning decision. Locking down on a 50-yard grass stretch with his Power-Poles, McFaul ground out a solid bag before making one final, crucial stop in Mattawoman Creek, where he landed two kicker fish over 4 pounds to seal the deal.
We break down Rick’s strategy, how he adapted to changing conditions, and what anglers can learn from this gritty performance on the Potomac. Don’t miss this insider look at how a local hammer turned adversity into a $4,584 payday with an 18-pound, 11-ounce five-fish limit.

On this jaw-dropping episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by local hammer Shane Crawford, who just made history on the Upper Potomac River! Shane smashed records by winning both the Mid-Atlantic Kayak Bass Fishing Series and the USA BASSIN - Jackson Kayak Trails Maryland Division event with a mind-blowing bag of 100+ inches of smallmouth bass!
To put that in perspective — that’s an average of 21 inches per fish in his five-fish limit! And get this — he lost two fish that would’ve pushed him over 105 inches. This kind of bag rivals even the legendary Susquehanna River and would’ve easily broken the 25-pound mark if not for the post-spawn conditions.
In this episode, Shane breaks down exactly how he did it — the patterns, the gear, the strategy — and gives a masterclass in river smallmouth fishing on the Upper Potomac during the June–July transition. If you love smallmouth fishing or want to up your kayak game, this is a must-watch.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we dive deep into the 2025 Fish Sampling Survey results with Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources Biologist Margaret Whitmore!
Join us as we break down the health, trends, and trophy potential of the Tidal James River system, including its two major tributaries—the Appomattox River and the Chickahominy River—both known for producing giant bass and excellent year-round fishing opportunities.
But that’s not all—we also spotlight a hidden gem tidal river system that often flies under the radar: the Mattaponi and Pamunkey Rivers, the main tributaries of the York River system. These lesser-known fisheries may just hold some of Virginia’s best-kept secrets.
Whether you’re a tournament angler or just love chasing big fish in tidal waters, this episode is packed with science, strategy, and fresh insight you won’t want to miss! 🌊🐟

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I talk with Local Stick Larry Tressler. Larry has spent many years exploring Maryland’s most underrated smallmouth fisheries — the Monocacy River! Flowing from Frederick all the way to its confluence with the Potomac, this scenic river offers prime smallmouth bass action, with plenty of fish in the 10–16” range and the chance at a true 18”+ trophy.
Whether you're a kayak angler or prefer to wade, the Monocacy’s shallow, clear waters and easy access points make it a dream destination. We’ll break down the best stretches to fish, including Pinecliff Park, Devilbiss Bridge, Buckeystown Park, and more.
Surrounded by rolling farmland and woodlands, this low-pressure river delivers not just great fishing — but peaceful, picturesque floats and stealthy hike-in opportunities that every smallmouth hunter will appreciate.
If you're looking to escape the crowds and hook into some hard-fighting smallmouth in a truly serene setting, this is the episode for you!

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with the owner of MX Plugs—a custom lure maker with an incredible backstory and a serious passion for innovation. It all started with a broken plug he found lakeside. No hooks, no hardware—just potential. After cutting it in half, reshaping it, adding rattles and new hardware, he crafted a plug that actually caught fish. That spark of creativity launched a journey that took him from offshore shark and tuna charters to the creeks and bays of Long Island, chasing striped bass. Over the years, he’s honed his craft designing lures for everything from tuna and dolphin to freshwater bass, eventually leading him to start his own company, MX Plugs. Tune in as we dive into the art, science, and inspiration behind his one-of-a-kind creations.

On this Throwback Friday episode of Fishing the DMV, we revisit an impactful conversation with Jeff Kelble and John Odenkirk. Together, we dive into the challenges facing the Shenandoah River and explore the often-overlooked work that happens behind the scenes when a fishery begins to decline.
Jeff Kelble brings a wealth of experience to the table. After guiding on the Shenandoah for over six years, he became the Shenandoah Riverkeeper in 2006 when he noticed the river’s health deteriorating. In this role, Jeff built strong coalitions of river users, local businesses, government officials, and legal advocates. Through strategic litigation, regulatory reform, and community organizing, he played a key role in addressing dozens of complex pollution issues that once threatened public access and enjoyment of the river.
Jeff’s success in the Shenandoah led him to serve as President of the Potomac Riverkeeper Network, where he continued defending and restoring our Nation’s rivers for another eight years. Today, he runs Ashby Gap Adventures, still deeply connected to the outdoors he works so hard to protect.
As anglers, it's easy to focus solely on the catch—but it's just as important to recognize the people working behind the scenes to safeguard these waters for future generations. Watch, listen, and learn—and let us know your thoughts!

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we return to the beautiful Upper James River with Upper James River local Dalton Karnes!
The James River is Virginia’s largest, and begins where the Cowpasture and Jackson Rivers meet in Botetourt County, carving its way through the Allegheny and Blue Ridge Mountains before reaching Lynchburg. From there, it flows through Richmond and ultimately into the Chesapeake Bay.
Today, we focus on the Non-tidal Upper James, a prime stretch for anglers from its mountain origins to the 14th Street bridge in Richmond. Known for its scenic beauty and fantastic fishing, this section is a hotspot for smallmouth bass action. We'll explore what makes the Upper James such a unique fishery, where the best fishing opportunities are, and why this river is a must-visit destination for smallmouth enthusiasts.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we’re diving into one of Maryland’s most underrated yet powerhouse fisheries—the Conowingo Reservoir—with none other than MAKBF Champion Mickey Pfortsch. Last year, Mickey took the title with over 95 inches of fish, and this year, he did it again with 89.75 inches—proving this place is no fluke!
Now, ask most anglers what the largest freshwater impoundment in Maryland is, and they’ll probably say Deep Creek Lake. But here’s a fun fact: Conowingo Reservoir actually spans over 5,000 acres along the mighty Susquehanna River, making it a true angler’s paradise.
From hard-fighting smallmouth that crush crankbaits on rocky points, to trophy largemouth lurking in submerged timber and grass, Conowingo offers a smorgasbord of bass fishing opportunities. And if panfish are your thing? Get ready for monster bluegill, crappie, and a whole cast of overlooked heavy hitters.
So grab your gear and join us as we break down Mickey’s tournament-winning tactics, talk kayak fishing strategy, and explore what makes this hidden gem one of the best bass fisheries in the Mid-Atlantic.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we're shining a spotlight on one of Virginia's most underrated hidden gems—Leesville Lake. 🎣
Joining me is Mike Gils, an angler and local expert, to talk about what may be Virginia’s least-known but most promising fishery. Tucked away in the Roanoke River Basin, Leesville Lake serves as the lower reservoir to the more famous Smith Mountain Lake, yet it holds its own as a prime destination for anglers and outdoor lovers alike.
This 3,260-acre reservoir with over 100 miles of shoreline straddles Campbell, Pittsylvania, and Bedford Counties and offers incredible fishing, boating, kayaking, tubing, and swimming. And while Leesville might not be on every fisherman’s radar, recent surveys by Virginia fisheries biologists ranked it 6th in the state for its abundance of trophy-sized bass—those over 20 inches—based on CPUE-M (Catch Per Unit Effort – Memorable).
Leesville Lake isn't just about big bass. The surrounding region boasts scenic hiking trails, local wineries, live music, cultural events, and more—making it the perfect destination for a weekend getaway or a new fishing adventure.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with Doug Roberts Jr., owner of FishNFX Rods, to dive into his lifelong passion for fishing and craftsmanship. Doug shares how his love for the sport began with his grandfather, preparing tackle the night before every trip—making sure rods were clean, lines were strong, and hooks were razor-sharp. The process of getting everything just right became just as thrilling as the fishing itself. At age 10, he discovered the joy of tying flies, further fueling his obsession with precision. But as he grew older, simply choosing spots and crafting tackle wasn’t enough. That passion evolved into building custom rods, pushing the boundaries of performance and design. Join us as Doug takes us through his journey of dedication, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of the perfect fishing experience.

This approach will help us gain a deeper understanding of their train of thought and facilitate an informed discussion about the proposed new laws to affect all Coosa River Reservoirs.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I have on Mike Minnick, a Virginia Master Angler V! Now, to put that into perspective, the rank of 'Master Angler' is reserved for those talented individuals who can land trophy-size fish from different species. It’s not easy, but it’s something Mike has excelled at—Master Angler V means he’s caught 25 trophy-size fish from different species! Let me break it down for you: At each level of the Master Angler program, anglers are recognized for their achievements. Starting with Master Angler I, that’s 5 trophy fish from different species, then to ascend in rank you need to catch 5 more for each level—so, Master Angler II means 10 trophy fish, Master Angler III is 15, and it goes all the way up to VI, which requires landing all 30 trophy fish species in the program! It’s no easy feat, and there’s no application—you qualify automatically based on your catches.
So, Mike is sitting at the incredible level of Master Angler V, and I can’t wait to dive into his journey today. We’re going to hear some amazing stories, tips for landing those trophy fish, and maybe get some inspiration for all of us trying to improve our fishing game. So grab your rod, settle in, and let's get started!"

On this exciting edition of Fishing the DMV Call-In Show! Join us this Monday Night Live (on a Tuesday) as we open up the lines to listeners to discuss a major development in the world of competitive bass fishing. The National Professional Fishing League (NPFL) has announced that starting with the 2025 season, the use of forward-facing sonar technology will be banned during both official practice and competition.
This decision comes after extensive discussions and highlights the challenges of incorporating such advanced technology into competitive fishing. Forward-facing sonar has revolutionized how anglers engage with their surroundings and strategize during competitions by providing unparalleled insights into fish behavior. However, this advancement has also raised concerns about maintaining the sport's traditional competitive balance. The NPFL's decision seeks to address these concerns by ensuring a broader range of techniques and skills remain essential to the competition, preserving the diversity that defines the sport.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we delve into Philpott Lake a lesser-known Virginia reservoir with brothers Colin & Chase Bennett. Spanning 2,880 acres near Martinsville, Virginia, Philpott Lake is nestled amidst the picturesque mountains of Patrick, Franklin, and Henry counties, appealing greatly to nature enthusiasts. The lake is under the management of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USCOE). Philpott was among the key locations significantly affected by the Alabama bass situation in Virginia's waters. Colin & Chase Bennett share with us their thoughts on the bass fishing potential of this lake, and how the Alabama bass have affected the lake.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV we talk about the Smallmouth Fish Hatchery Program out of Front Royal Virginia with Jason Hallacher of Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources. In 2020, the Front Royal Fish Hatchery took a pause for renovations, undergoing significant upgrades. These included building two modern hatchery structures with state-of-the-art temperature-controlled hatching equipment, setting up an advanced filtration system at the Passage Creek intake, and reinforcing the linings of four ponds. These changes were intended to optimize the entire process of hatching, nurturing, and harvesting fish. In May 2023, the hatchery reopened, specifically focusing on boosting the populations of smallmouth bass in the South and Shenandoah River systems.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV I have a conversation with Rob England of Appalachian Bronzeback Adventures. Rob gives us a Summertime Fishing report for the Upper James River, Jackson River & the Maury River.
Rob I grew up in Ohio and started fishing at a very young age. I’m an hardcore sports fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes, Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Indians and Carolina Hurricanes hockey team. Playing football at Ferrum College brought me to Virginia and I fell in love with our mountains and world class fishing rivers.
I started guiding part time in 2008 and after two layoffs in 5 years from jobs in North Carolina, decided to move to Eagle Rock, Virginia and guide full time.
In addition to being a hardcore sports fan, I am avid runner and have completed 21 marathons. My wife and I also enjoy hiking and camping with our two Great Pyrenees and spending time with our 13 grandchildren.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I talk about the New River with Captain Josh Lafetry and Austin Conrad's.
The New River is one of the oldest rivers in the world, beginning its journey in western North Carolina. From there, it meanders through Virginia and eventually reaches West Virginia, where it becomes a tributary for the Kanawha River. Spanning approximately 320 miles in length, the New River holds the distinction of being one of the oldest rivers in the United States.
An intriguing characteristic of the New River is its primarily south-to-north flow, a trait shared by only a few rivers worldwide, including the Nile. This unique feature adds to the river's allure and intrigue. Recognizing its significance, the New River was granted the status of a national river in 1978, thereby becoming part of the United States National Park Service. Further highlighting its importance, the river was also designated an American Heritage River in 1998.
Captain Josh Laferty, a proud native of Roanoke, has been a guiding force in the region since the early 2000s. With his expertise as one of the original musky fly fishing guides in the area, Josh possesses a remarkable level of experience navigating our rivers. His profound understanding of the dynamics required for a successful pursuit of southern musky sets him apart as a seasoned guide.
Hailing from the charming town of Oak Hill in Southern West Virginia, Captain Austin Conrad's roots run deep in the region. Having spent a significant part of his life there, Austin has developed a profound connection with the outdoors. Over the past 15 years, he has dedicated himself to fishing and guiding enthusiasts in Virginia, leading them to discover the wonders of wild trout, smallmouth bass, and musky.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I have the pleasure of speaking with the winner of Shenandoah Division BFL on the Potomac River Alex Pirowski. “I ran into Belmont Bay, a creek in the middle of the river, and jumped around to a few key areas I had found about a week ago,” Pirowski. “I slowed down, fished Senko and a Chatterbait. Alex targeted both grass and hard bottom in search of bass, and also caught a few in a marina. Most of his bass came in 2 to 4 feet of water.

Todd has an impressive record of fishing 59 events under the FLW/Major League Fishing organization, with three career wins, 13 top Tens, and total winnings of over $32,761.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV I talk to local stick Lee Cox who is fishing all events in the Shenandoah BFL Division. We talk about his finish on Kerr Reservoir back in March and the up coming event on Smith Mountain lake. We also learn a little bit more about this local angler.
Lee Cox is a highly accomplished angler and local stick hailing from Frederick, MD. With years of experience under his belt, Lee has truly done it all in the world of fishing.
Lee's expertise extends far and wide, from guiding on the Susquehanna and tidal Potomac River to competing in top-level events such as the BFLs and Toyota series. He's also had great success in Florida, where he's won big and solidified his reputation as a skilled angler.
One of Lee's most notable achievements came in 2003, when he claimed the Co-Angler win in the Northern Bassmaster Open event on Lake Oneida. This victory showcased Lee's exceptional talent and proved that he's capable of holding his own against some of the best anglers in the world.

On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, I have on Andrew Knight owner & founder of RVA James River Fishing Report website. We talk about the James river shad run that takes place in the heart of Richmond, Virginia. Richmond has way more fishing opportunities than I ever imagined and Andrew breaks it all down for us!
Andrew grew up living minutes from Pony Pasture and has spent over 15 years wading through the James for smallies. Andrew learned how to fish for smallmouth by casting green Yamamotos all summer long but discovered fly fishing while in school at Virginia Tech. He fell in love with the sport and spent a summer and fall working as a fly fishing guide at the A Bar A Ranch in Southern Wyoming. While he favors fly fishing for most conditions, he loves all styles of fishing and still spin fishes to keep his pops happy…and because sometimes you just have to cover water quickly.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV I have a conversation with Rob England of Appalachian Bronzeback Adventures. In this episode, we musky, fishing, trout fishing, smallmouth fishing not only on the Upper James River, but we also explore the Jackson River & the Maury River.
Rob I grew up in Ohio and started fishing at a very young age. I’m an hardcore sports fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes, Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Indians and Carolina Hurricanes hockey team. Playing football at Ferrum College brought me to Virginia and I fell in love with our mountains and world class fishing rivers.
I started guiding part time in 2008 and after two layoffs in 5 years from jobs in North Carolina, decided to move to Eagle Rock, Virginia and guide full time.
In addition to being a hardcore sports fan, I am avid runner and have completed 21 marathons. My wife and I also enjoy hiking and camping with our two Great Pyrenees and spending time with our 13 grandchildren.

Having guided on the Shenandoah and Potomac for almost twenty years, Mark Frondorf comes to the Shenandoah Riverkeeper position used to hard work and recognizing the importance of a hands-on approach to protecting our rivers. His passion for the water, combined with his people and analytical skills, honed over 25 years as a think tank senior policy analyst tackling some of the most vexing issues facing our nation, make him ideally suited to defend the Shenandoah against pollution, protect our right to clean water, and promote the recreational use of this beautiful river.

On this exciting episode of the Fishing the DMV Podcast I have the honor of talking with Charlie Taylor. As a supervisor with 7-Eleven back in 1970, he was making his rounds one day when one of his store managers told him that he was too uptight, and he needed a hobby. After that day an obsession was born.
Charlie Taylors list of accomplishments are astonishing!!! An accomplished fishing guide, a publishing fishing reports that continued for over 17 years in multiple local publications, including the Times Community Newspaper, an accomplished fishing guide, creator of multiple local fishing Clubs and the founding of the NHBA Youth Foundation in 1991. This foundation started one of the longest running kids fishing derbies on the planet!!! The organization still host this youth derby at Lake Fairfax to this day.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV we talk about all things flathead catfish on the Upper Potomac River with Pat O'Donnell.
Pat is an avid catfish angler who loves catching Flathead Catfish. Pat has agreed to come on the show to get some perspective as to why anglers love to target this creature in the best tactics that you can implement to increase your chances of success the next time you go Cat-fishing.
The relative abundance of flathead catfish was a little less than half of the channel catfish abundance during our surveys in 2021 when no flathead were collected in 2011. However, the relative abundance of flathead catfish in our surveys more than doubled in the five-year period between 2016 and 2021. This still represents a very rapid increase in flathead abundance.

On this episode of Fishing the DMV Jeff Kelble sits down with VDWR Biologist John Odenkirk to discuss fish, the health of the Shenandoah River, and some less known things that go on behind the scenes when river systems hit a downward spiral. Jeff spent over 6 years guiding the Shenandoah River before heading up the Shenandoah Riverkeeper position for 8 years starting in 2006 when he saw the river taking a nosedive. As Riverkeeper he built coalitions of river users, river related businesses, government officials and legal partners. Jeff worked to write and enforce effective environmental laws and regulations, and employ a litigation and advocacy strategy which over ten years solved dozens of complex pollution issues threatening public use of the Shenandoah River. This experience led to an opportunity to serve as the President of the Potomac Riverkeeper Network defending our Nation’s river for another 8 years. Jeff is currently the owner and operator of Ashby Gap Adventures. We as anglers rightfully get excited when a fishery is not producing quality catches but it’s important to know there are many folks working hard to advocate for this great resource! Watch, listen, learn, and let us know your thoughts!

On this episode of fishing the DMV we talk to Michael Bartgis. Michael Bartgis is seasoned kayak angler with a passion for inshore saltwater fishing. What started out as a way to get a little more water access turned into an addictive hobby that has led me up and down the coast and abroad chasing fish from a kayak. Along the way I have made some great friends from sites like www.snaggedline.com, put over 300,000 miles on my vehicles, caught a lot of fish, and even ran the largest kayak fishing tournament in Maryland for 7 years to raise money for local charities. I’ve been so consumed with kayak fishing over the past decade that it’s spawned other hobbies like reel repair and rod building; always on the quest for the rod with the right action and handle length for kayak fishing. I greatly enjoy taking new kayak anglers out on the water and can proudly say I taught my wife and son how to kayak fish.

Harry and I have a fantastic conversation ranging from saltwater fishing, the killing of aquatic vegetation that is happening due to Florida fishing & game, what lead a Florida boy to driving over 1,000 miles away to crack a win the first time ever fishing the Potomac and a little bet that we have in which he needs to only catch large-mouth at the last two stops at the Toyota northern series which includes Lake Champlain and the St. Lawrence river.

Fishing the DMV Episode 13: whiskey & fish tales the RIP Canoe story. In this Fishing the DMV Podcast Jared Mounts and long-time friend Steve Morris share their canoe adventure mishaps on local rivers over the years. Jared had his eye on a shiny new Indian River canoe at Sparks Sporting Goods in Martinsburg, West Virginia in the late 90’s. With a little extra money in the bank, the decision to buy an engagement ring or canoe was weighed as all good decision makers do. After careful consideration, the green 17-foot canoe was strapped to the top of the pick-up truck! This canoe served its purpose on many bodies of water including the Potomac River from Damn 4 to Shepherdstown, Sleepy Creek, North Fork of the Shenandoah River, and a handful of trips through the Trough! Join us to hear about their adventures on the water including the final resting place of the ole Indian River Canoe! Disclaimer: All stories shared in this podcast are true and only slightly embellished due to the number of times it has been told. Eyewitness accounts can confirm most of the details! One should NOT try to duplicate the events that took place. Enjoy!
