i love this spot because it is mostly quiet and not many people are asking you about the fish your catching and how big it is, it does not have a long hike to get to the spot plus the fishing is great there for me.

Not the best water to fish from being as though you wouldn’t want to keep any of the polluted fish. But overall the anacostia have some monsters. You will have fun just don’t keep the fish
