We have had some luck at DC but we have had to work for them. We have been getting some fairly good rainbows in 14" - 19" range with a 19" and 21" brown thrown in the mix. It's the only place up north where we can still float our boats. We are going to hit it again on Monday after the storms pass by.
One of the guys I fish with has some friends down south that fished Newcastle last week in their toons and caught some rainbows up to 18". They were surprised by their size. Like you said they had only caught smaller fish there in the past.
Good luck when ice out comes your way.
