Subject: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Fishing Lock 6

Hey yall,
I'm new to DC from North Carolina and looking for some convenient fly fishing. I am living in Brookmont, in walking distance to Lock 6 on the canal. I'd love some advice (not secrets) on what flies you all are using, and some direction on location. Anything would be great.
 
Thanks
JR

Welcome Jason
i am not familiar with exact location of Brookmont or Canal 6.
I can recommend Turkey Run Park on the Potomac ( a 1/4 mile hike down a moderate grade to access river from parking lot)
and the walkable stretch of the Potomac upstream from Haines Point...
...also..... the TIDAL BASIN
...that should get you started

Where can you wade upstream from Haines Point?

You're really close to chainbridge. Do some searches on that, you will find a lot of information.
