    5/5

    From the reservation process onward, the guys at Fish the Potomac were friendly and accommodating. The dock is easily accessible, and Captain Seth was very knowledgable about the best spots to fish. He was able to answer all of my avid angler son's questions, as well as get my other son (who was not quite as enthusiastic about fishing) involved. We caught some massive catfish, and came home with amazing photos and lifelong memories. I highly recommend Fish the Potomac for an unforgettable DC experience!
