Four mile run

[tsm...@gmail.com]

Has anyone been fishing 4mr this week?
I have not seen it but I'm hoping to get out there tomorrow if the water is not too high.

Four mile run is extremely flashy.  Unless it has just rained, it is never high for very long (other than the tide).

I was in there a few weeks ago (~1800-2100 hours), low tide into the start of the incoming tide (could tell by my fly line laying in the water).  Nothing feeding on the surface although I saw a ton of fish jumping all around me.  I caught a 5-7lb catchfish on a brown bug-looking sinking lure (cross between a muddler and a crawfish imitation I guess) bouncing it off the bottom.  Put up a great 10-15 minute fight before I could get it to me and get the hook out.  I had a few more bites then went cold.  I tried clousers and other lures but nothing really was biting.  Tried some top water poppers and nothing.  

Cheers

I caught half dozen bass in the 11 - 13 in range and a perch on Saturday evening (outgoing tide) between the 2 bridges.  There is a rocky bar that runs down middle and I fished weighted white streams stripped slowly over the bar.

Anyone had any success with largemouths on topwater flies  anywhere?

Thx Bill.
That is a great report.
I fished there sunday morning and it was beautiful (in a 4mr kind of way).
I didn't catch anything.

I try to follow your advice soon.
