This is incorrect, you only need a Virginia fishing license (no trout stamp required for wild fish) to fish in Shenandoah National Park. See regulations here: http://www.nps.gov/shen/parkmgmt/upload/fishing_regulations.pdfDalton

I'll probably drag along some fly fishing gear because I always seem to regret it if I don't on trips like these. I searched the TPFR group here and did not find any mention of this area so I was wondering if anyone know of some streams in that area worth hiking to. Loft Mountain does sit up on the ridge so I figure I am going to have to do some downhill hiking (followed by an uphill return) before I see anything worth fishing. I also have the Topo map for that area but I have to study it a little more to understand the layout. I think there may be some streams that are labelled wild trout streams in that area. Also, what licenses/stamps do I need to purchase for that area? I'm currently a non-resident of Virginia so if I go with the annual license then it will probably set me back ~$100. Does the park require me to purchase something additional to fish their certain streams? Thanks for your help.

My oldest was a little upset her fly didn't look perfect so I told her that maybe the fish will feel sorry for it and try to put it out of its misery. I'll have to wait and see if I want to begin the investment into fly tying (The families got a few too many expensive hobbies right now).
