{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Gunpowder Falls

I haven't been up there in a couple of months, but I've always had *some luck with soft hackles, even into late December last year.   

I was told (by some random old guy with a flask who said "I don't generally drink during the day, but I'm working nights now") that every foot of stream bed in the GP holds about 60,000 trout, and with the low water in the summer you stand a real chance of stomping many fish to death.  

I don't know how many times I've lifted my wading staff out of the stream to find a 26" brown trout impaled on the end of it.

Has anyone fished it lately?  I've only been there once but enjoyed it.
