On this jaw-dropping episode of Fishing the DMV, I’m joined by local hammer Shane Crawford, who just made history on the Upper Potomac River! Shane smashed records by winning both the Mid-Atlantic Kayak Bass Fishing Series and the USA BASSIN - Jackson Kayak Trails Maryland Division event with a mind-blowing bag of 100+ inches of smallmouth bass!
To put that in perspective — that’s an average of 21 inches per fish in his five-fish limit! And get this — he lost two fish that would’ve pushed him over 105 inches. This kind of bag rivals even the legendary Susquehanna River and would’ve easily broken the 25-pound mark if not for the post-spawn conditions.
In this episode, Shane breaks down exactly how he did it — the patterns, the gear, the strategy — and gives a masterclass in river smallmouth fishing on the Upper Potomac during the June–July transition. If you love smallmouth fishing or want to up your kayak game, this is a must-watch.
