I did see a few smallmouth about, and a huge pod of carp, at least a hundred in the pod. I'd love to know how to catch them short of snagging them.....
I did not bring a flyrod on this trip, water is just too cold for that right now.

We floated the South Fork near Luray from WhiteHouse Bridge to Massanutten. Didn't catch a thing. Didn't see any--fish except carp. It was a beautiful day though. I will probably be back again sometime this winter. Will try to canoe a stretch a little further north.-John, 2013 10:17:02 AM UTC-5, samuel newcomer wrote:John-Anything to report?

Based on the size of flies Brad was tying, you're going to want a solid 10 wt and full sinking line, flies 14" long with hollow tied buck tail, flash and long saddle hackles.Brad also said that he didn't think anyone should go after musky without jaw spreaders, a large net/cradle and really long pliers. Just something to think about before you try to land fish that go up to 50 inches or more and have nasty teeth.Dalton
