High Water
 
Let's just say you needed channel markers for some roads on the Shore. Me and Jamie found a pretty good rip on the back corner of some guy's house but he run us off before we could get a topwater plug over it.

Shawn, I came over the Point of Rocks bridge over the Potomac today and she was about 300 yards over her bank. That river is flowing millions of gallons per second through Great Falls. Remember, it is still catch and release ........even on the street!!!...........Gary

Man Shawn that was some serious water!......I still can't believe you launched your boat in that guys back yard......:D
Remember the fastest way to point B is a Direct line from point A.....:D
Thanks for the trip and your new boat is fantastic!....

Lots of small streams near me are over their banks.

If you fish a flooded road - turn off the truck - the engine noise spooks the fish :D

3pm not much coming out of the Conowingo, looked like 5 gates open but volume was not "shooting" out as it does during big flood events.

6pm different story, I was on 95 this time but you could see a mist cloud up at the dam, usually this is caused by a ton of water coming out of the flood gates.

and judging by the USGS data it jumped up at 5pm

I would guess that Mr. Kimbro would appreciate all this rain. After all "Rain is a Good thing"

Rain makes corn, corn makes wiskey, wiskey makes my baby feel a little friskey :D

Shawn, I know that spot. I lived for nine months not far from there. On the right tides that can be a good early morning topwater bite.:D
