My beautiful wife, Joyce Pratt (with the perch) bought me a fishing trip on the Potomac. I'm used to catching perch on the Severn/Magothy areas as shown by the picture of Joyce. I went with Kelly's Whitefly in Sheperdstown, WV. It's all catch & release below the 340 bridge on the Potomac, near Harper's Ferry. Caught 32 total (lots of misses) about 20 of them were 12" or more and 2 whoppers - 18" and 20". I learned a lot on how to fish in freshwater from Kelly.
