Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cattaraugus creek report

I've wanted to try centerpinning (or at least float fishing) for warmwater fish on the non-tidal Potomac. I'm not sure I'm willing to shell out $200 bucks for a centerpin reel, so will probably use a spinning reel to give it a try.I can see a conflict between fly anglers and Centerpinners. You could line up 5 centerpinners across...

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Conway River Browns

I have fished the Conway. It was my favorite Trout Stream when I lived out that way. It is a beautiful stretch of water.I use to fish the lower end of it. I did pretty good on the native browns. There are some tenacious brookies in there as well. -- http://www.tpfr.org --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders" group.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cattaraugus creek report

Center pins are a pain on smaller creeks. Always thought about using one with nymphs. The ability to get a long drift with no drag is a cool thought.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cattaraugus creek report

Not a problem! I just spoke with the guy and he was insisting that it was legit -- he mentioned the Ontario tribs were single-fly still though. No -- the truth is that I really didn't know and am a lot more aware for future trips to either place! Everyone should be aware of the regs and never just trust other folks to know...

I could look into boxing and shipping.... maybe set up an account with ups and I could box and ship... I live across from a ups store. we can discuss it if that's what we want to do.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cattaraugus creek report

Actually it looks like I may be wrong. Seems as if New York State changed the rule just a few months ago. My bad, it was illegal for as long as I have been fishing up there. http://www.dec.ny.gov/press/101039.html On Monday, November 30, 2015 at 10:51:08 AM UTC-5, TurbineBlade wrote:That's kind of a shame -- it...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cattaraugus creek report

That's kind of a shame -- it seems like there are always various "tackle groups" which get reputations like that. I'm sure a lot of good folks use centerpin gear and respect the fishery. I deleted the post regarding "rigs" -- but thank you for making me aware of that. It never occurred to me to check that using a guide...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cattaraugus creek report

As far as centerpinners go, no they are generally not highly regarded. I have met some that have been good guys and respectful anglers, but as a group they are notorious for running insanely long drifts without caring if they are floating down in front of other people. There have been issues with people gutting large female browns for...

Unless you were on the res it is not legal to fish more than one fly at a time on the NY great lakes tribs. -- http://www.tpfr.org --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders" group.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} TPFR Product Testing

As a frequent trucker hat wearer and a very frequent small stream fisherman, I'll tell you that the first thing to go on them is the mesh comes unraveled due to abrasion (it actually feels like craft fur...nice and soft!). I'll buy one and do a time-lapse thing for longevity after about 40-50 trips to SNP this coming spring. My old Urban hat is still going, but it's brown with sweat, and she keeps trying to hide it...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} TPFR Product Testing

Gene, these are some pretty damn cool trucker hats, I'll post up some pictures tonight or tomorrow. Same color combo (navy/grey) that my H2 trucker hat started as that got lost to the wind in Wyoming a couple weeks back.Brian, I think we could easily figure out how to take the money and orders online, but we don't have anyone itching to do the actual boxing and shipping.Forrest, I have ordered a few sample long sleeve t-shirts...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cattaraugus creek report

I forgot -- we also used some kind of "small" streamer based upon a Senyo pattern (black and blue, craft fur on a #10 heavy scud hook of some kind). I like "small" streamers for most all my warm water fishing, so that one was fun for me to fish. And also a tube fly -- those things are weird. Nothing hit the tube fly though. ...

I'll be there for one! Any progress on shirts, too? -- http://www.tpfr.org --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders" group.

Watch your step on that footpath along the left bank there. The leaves cover up some big rocks I found out ;).

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} TPFR Product Testing

Is that a trucker hat? I tend to wear those the most because they're cool (temp). Well, they also make you look cool.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cattaraugus creek report

Rob -- We were guided for the majority of the time we were on the water, so we mostly fished an egg and woolly bugger combo, both nymphing and swinging when the temp hit 46F in the afternoon. I did use a few of the eggs and those orange, huge PT nymph things. Got hit on eggs one day behind the cabin. So I still have most...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Poachers at 4mr and chain

Have called VDGIF a couple times on poaching.... Even without traffic, their closest office is more than an hour away in Fredericksburg so basically they don't patrol and won't respond to calls.
