Catching Up

Type: Nontidal
Region: Southern
Location: Various locations

Catching up:

On 3/24 I fished the pond at Indian Springs and the Lake Lariat discharge pond, bluegill & sunfish, redworms, pond at Indian Creek was really high and flowing over dam.

On 3/25 I fished St Mary�s Lake, catching largemouth bass and a pickerel, catching on crankbaits, lake is up but clear.

On 3/26-27-29 fished Mason Springs, 137 hickory shad and 19 blueback herring, shad dart and gold spoon tandems. Various color darts. One shad had a lamprey.

On the 29th I ventured over to several other fisheries after leaving Mason Springs, to see if they are fishable. Nothing but a muddy mess over at Governors Bridge Road. I then headed over to Waysons Corner to see what was happening there. Anglers there saying it�s slow and only very small white perch. High, fast & muddy water everywhere.

Then I hit Kings Landing on the Patuxent River too. But the high winds made it difficult to fish off the pier.
