Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: North Branch of the Potomac
Good luck. Looks fishable for the next few days. Lots of poison ivy along the trails. I'd wear waders and don't forget studs and wading staff if you have them, at least around the NB.On Aug 30, 2013, at 5:44 PM, Matt Inbusch <minbusch@gmail.com> wrote:Thanks all!

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Mosquito Lagoon, Florida fishing advice
For reds, go with a 6ft section of 20# with a 3ft tippet of 12#. If you'll be fishing a lot of grass, go with mono butt and fluoro tippet for the abrasion resistance. The fluoro is more brittle than regular mono, so be prepared to lose to flies. I might also suggest some worm/eel patterns - I use a strip of black or olive zonker tied in just above the bend and with a loop of mono hanging off the back to keep it from fouling, then...
Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Mosquito Lagoon, Florida fishing advice
You should have pretty good luck early in October, since the mullet will be running (hint - bring mullet imitations). I'd leave the 5wt at home, since that'll really be too light for anything but some snapper. You'll want to fish Mosquito Lagoon. The water should be crystal clear, and it is basically a massive grass flat. Indian River and Banana River can also work, but I'd do Mosquito if possible. If a cold front hasn't hit yet,...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Pike/Musky
James and New river from headwaters of the James down and the new out around Blacksburg have some big girls in there. Lake Burke has musky (though I'm not sure if it is viable on fly there - never even seen the lake) and the Occoquan Reservoir has pike, but, again, I don't know much beyond that basic fact.On Thursday, August 29, 2013 11:11:29 AM UTC-4, Jeff Silvan wrote:I've been told by some of the Shenandoah area guides that...

Little Serow is the best snakehead in town and they've had it almost every time I've been. Only downside is they don't take reservations.
