RE: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Accotink Creek

Nope, it wasn't me out there, I always fish on weekdays.

I find these trout still have feeding habits from the hatchery. On certain hours they hit really well and certain hours they just shut down. In my experience with flies for the Accotink trout is that anything that you offer, they will hit if it's the right size. I fish with #6 or 8 Beedhead woollybuggers, color in black or olive most of times and works great!

 

Tight Lines,

Hey Todd - you aren't the guy my wife and I ran into out there this weekend are you?  We we talking to a dude near the "meadow" area who said something about catching browns -- he had a spinning rod and said he often fly fishes, but didn't have time to grab his stuff that day.   Acdtually, Beth did really well that day (and a lot of days lately...) but I was doing crappy most of the morning (missing the few hits I got) but I finally had some luck with a rubber legged woolly bugger.  Actually, I'm convinced that palmering saddle hackle on those suckers isn't worth the effort.  Even with wire ribbing (counter-wrapped, cis and trans-wrapped, wraps overlapping other wraps, etc.) I've had 3-4 get cut by fish right off the bat and start to look "yumpy". 

 

I like this guy's woolly bugger pattern - I tied a few and they worked like a charm out there:

If that's you, I must say that you have good photography skills.  If that's not you, I'd say you have "average" camera skills, because this distinction matters.  ;) 

 

Okay, hockey is on now.  My #2 television choice for anything other than River Monsters.  I'm unable to evaluate the credibility of anyone with a British accent -- sue me, I'm from Missouri.

The brown and bow are still in the creek and it's nice to fish.
