What to Bring
Shallow Water Fishing Adventures is a complete guide service, however there are some things you will need to bring with you.
Camera
The Potomac River is very scenic and historic. Expect to see bald eagles and historical landmarks. We can take a picture of your fish and post it on our website.
Sun Block
The sun can be intense on the water. Be sure to use the appropriate SPF for your skin tone.
Polarized Sunglasses
Eyewear protects from the sun and from the wind while we are underway.
Appropriate Attire
Wear loose fitting comfortable clothing. Call for weather conditions. A hat is a must — glare and warmth.
Rod & Reel (optional)
We provide spinning gear; however, if you would like to bring your own rods or just your reel and use our rods, that is fine.
Food & Beverages
We do NOT provide food or beverages. Bring your own. Small soft-sided coolers are best — freezing bottles of water saves space and replaces the need for ice.
Please do NOT bring alcohol.
You are responsible for lost and/or broken rods and reels.

A VIP pick-up and drop-off service is available for $80.
