Before George Washington crossed the Delaware, he worked the Potomac.
At Mount Vernon, Washington operated one of early America’s most important commercial fisheries, harvesting spring shad with seine nets along a shoreline he once described as “one entire fishery.”
The same country that was founded by rivers, tides, crossings, and working water is still being explored today. One fishery at a time.
This Independence Day, we’re celebrating 250 years of American freedom, American water, and the stories still swimming through it.
