Here in Mayland the smallmouth bass seems to be almost non existent.In
recent weeks a few seasoned fly anglers and I have been fishing for
smallies with little success.The few fish caught have been dinks
Sunfish are also noticeably absent..The Potomac near Harpers Ferry the
Susquehanna below Conowingo dam
and the Patapsco near Ellicott City all seem to be fishing poorly in
last few seasons.Grass beds and insect activity on the Susquehanna are
extemely thin ,there are not any baitfish to speak of....Draught
conditions followed by a record rainfall last season played a major role
in creating the situation,Iam sure..With that said, any comments ?
