Capt. Dewey Webster, Wenonah,
Md, is having fine luck this week.
He had Mr.. George Radebaugh
and family from Towson. Md. on
a trip that netted 80 trout and 253
hardheads. From the gradually
increasing reports, trout should be
running good by July Is. From
the number caught last month, it
looked as though they might start
a little early this year.
Capt. Charles w. Husemann. at
Abel, Md, on the lower Potomac,
says spots, perch and hardheadS
are taking the hook in fine shape.
They are also trolling for rock, but
so far haven't done so good. Bait
is scarce at this point, so better
take your own along.
Small HardheadS
Annapolis, South River and
West River saw a poor Fourth OF
July. For those boats that fiShed
the west side of the bay. small
hardheads were the only reward
And they were small, too, running
from one-half to one and one-hali
pounds. Not a boat that came un
der our observation had more than
so. Those boats from West River
that fished Sharpes Island had
more to show, both fish and
catches running larger.
Capt. Sam Tillett, at Oregon In
let, reports that the channel bass
are still very plentiful, although
they are running smaller this
week, from 10 to 80 pounds. The
largest catch was 26. The blues
are running small, too, which is
to be expected, as the first run of
large ones is over. The largest
catch of blues was 103. The sea
bass are coming fine. High boat
was 1913, running between two and
six pounds. We would like to add
again for the anglers benefit that
the best way to get there is by
steamer to Norfolk (no charge for
cars), and drive 80 miles down the
beach over a good road. For in
formation call WancheSe, N. c.,
123.
Muddies Potomac
The storm of last Saturday
muddied the Potomac so much
that practically nothing has been
caught. A few cats, with the larg-
est running about 3 pounds, COM
prise the catch. Capt. Joe Fletcher
says it should be good by Mon
day if we have no more storms up
the river.
On the Susquehanna, they are
taking a few small wall-eyed pike
and rock, but not enough to make
the run up there worth while.
Last year the Rockville Chapter
Of the I1aak Walton League
damned the old C. & o. canal at
Seneca, Md, making a pool 8
miles long. It was stocked with
smallmouth bass of good size early
in the fall. This year it is re-
turning real dividends in sport.
Boats are obtainable and it is best
to use one on account of the heavy
growth Of lily pads. Use a surface
lure Of any sort or a fly and spin
ner. Don't forget Maryland law:
10 bass one day and they must
be over 10 inches. There are also
sunfish there that will scale "a
