I had 2 days off but too much rain to fish. So I tied some flies. Mostly for bream but stuck a few in the trout box too.

I fished a BASS tournament on the Potomac river and it was raining so hard that when I was culling I had fish swimming around in the bottom of my 19’ Champion.
The bilge pumps couldn’t keep up.
Its never raining to hard.

Mops and Squirmy worms?!?!? You god less heathen.
I started using a piece of vinyl rib to tie on squirmies and they’ve lasted quite a bit longer for me. I always cut them with the thread even with a dubbing cushion.
"Too wet to fish" right now in our streams and rivers means "likely to drown." I've seen some flooding around here, but nothing like what we had this last week. I don't blame Chief at all.
The difference between fishing out of a boat and walking the bank is huge.
I remember back to a huge flood we had when Buggs Island was really flooded. I was trolling down a road, guard rails on either side under several feet of water.
Nothing better then the “water in the bushes” at Buggs.

It wasn't too wet in some places yesterday.
They were in the water under that little bush near the turn hole. Caught em on that little green twisty bug thing they sell at Walmart.Where did you catch those?
Not sure how it looked Tuesday. I dont live up there. I dont think the area it was at was hit as hard as some areas and that particular stream is generally lower and slower. Lots of fish caught where they wouldn't normally be since the water level was up.24 hours makes a big difference, how did that stream look Tuesday? If that big storm had not rolled through Monday afternoon I would have probably took a chance. But it rained hard again exactly where I was headed to fish. Sometimes you just don't feel like driving an hour when the odds are not in your favor.
Nice fish BTW.
