Fly Fishing the Upper Potomac in 100° Heat

Northern Virginia was under a heat advisory over the Fourth of July weekend, but I still had to get out on the Upper Potomac. The day was spent working the shallow Virginia side of the river upstream from Algonkian Regional Park. I was hoping for smallmouth, but the river had a different plan instead- thanks for watching!
