What's Happening at Fletcher's Boathouse

While the searing heat has not been kind to the local fisherman (or the fish!), some of our regulars have had notable success. Brooks Noble continues his “catfish angler of the year” quest with yet more fish almost too heavy to hoist.

If you are planning to fish at some other location and need bait or tackle, don’t forget that Fletcher’s is really the only in-town tackle shop. Our small size dictates that the selection is kept to the basics, but if you need hooks, sinkers, bobbers, worms, bass lures or some light to medium spinning combos, then we may well have what you want. D.C. fishing permits also can be purchased through the summer and early fall.
