Took a mental health day and fished Tuckahoe lake/ Took a mental health day and fished Tuckahoe lake/creek yesterday in the jon boat. Gorgeous weather and a couple willing, small bass (wacky rigged yum dinger). Very cool area to explore. Lots of small sunnies hanging around. Originally started at Unicorn Lake but it was even more choked than my July recon. Sheesh…something is going on in that one, which is a shame. @marylanddnr can anything be done?

Dude, where’s my fish? While reliable small scho Dude, where’s my fish? While reliable small schools of stripers roam the Ptap/Key area, or Poplar, or lower Potomac, anglers also eagerly search for them in the rivers. But the fish are few and far between. It’s been an ā€œoffā€ year. Its not a coincidence we’re seeing the effect of multiple years of poor spawning classes, poor angling in rivers, and, recently, the ASMFC proposing widespread reductions to the 2026 rec and commercial striper fisheries. 

I spent a morning in a very simple kayak setup hitting my ā€œreliableā€ creek spots for perch but not finding them either. Just one baby striper. The entire Severn has been awful this summer. I hope we see it turn over this month and into fall. The water is starting to look better and it’s still pretty out there. Fingers crossed šŸ¤ž

Trolly Line #9 Trail in Ellicott City is an easy ā€˜n cool little hike—about 2.5m round hike. Nice cut-through w/ boardwalk, a couple tiny falls/pools, and great tree canopy. We checked it out yesterday, then dipped into town for ice cream and window shopping.

Boy and I fished a good chunk of the Severn this v Boy and I fished a good chunk of the Severn this very early a.m. and managed some perch on Kastmasters. Didn’t find any schoolies on topwater or jigging for that matter. Wind worked directly against the tide which made things a little wonky, otherwise conditions were quite pleasant. But reports are suggesting schoolie stripers are beginning to spread upwards of Round Bay. Wish I found em lol!
