Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Carderock

There are spots around that section that don't look it but are deep with a dangerous undertow. And you can step from relatively safe water right in to them before you know it. Even with safe gage levels.

I will be at Flectcher’s Sunday morning at 8:30 working on double hand casting, if any one wants to practice.  I will be there rain or shine.

 

If it IS raining Saturday morning, I will be there too, same time, but definitely there on Sunday.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Carderock

Unfortunately, I'll be camping no matter what, but Carl is right. It makes sense to fish in the canal instead. 

Thanks guys

Hi Gary,

I'd recommend you stay at home and watch Netflix or hit smaller stream. If you check the gauge at Little Falls (http://water.weather.gov/ahps2/hydrograph.php?gage=brkm2&wfo=lwx), it's probably a little too high to safely wade this weekend; just my take.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Carderock

Gary,

I fish that area occasionally, but it is too dangerous when the little falls gauge is above 3.  At 4 I take extra care when walking the bank and sometimes bag it.  With the paths being wet and the river high, I would forget the river, but there are fish in the canal there.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Carderock

I will be parking my car at the Carderock parking lot tomorrow for a camping event down the trail. I have read about folks fishing the Carderock area for bass. Was there a specific area and what did you cast? I'm not sure if it will even be worth it with all the rain, but I'll try!

Thanks in advance!

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Thoughts on an affordable 9 wt. 9- 10ft rod setup.


For a rod you are not going to use a lot, look for clearance items.  
Another option is check ebay.  9wt's go for cheap, because everyone is in the same boat.  It's a rod that doesn't get used too much.  Just be sure to look at the pictures closely.
The third option is to build one out on the cheap.   It can be done for under $100 and you get a decent rod.  For $200 you build a very nice rod.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Thoughts on an affordable 9 wt. 9- 10ft rod setup.

I got to throw a Rise rod (I think it was the Level) a couple months ago and it surprised me with how well it performs. It's extremely fast action and makes a 30 knot gust seem like a gentle breeze.

Take a look at Rise Fishing.  The Level and Level X rods are stiff, can handle big fish, throw heavy sinking lines, and have a great warranty too.

As for reels, your 9/10wt saltwater reel will double as a 7wt spey reel for those steelhead and brown trout in the Great Lakes or west coast (or if you insist Gravelly).

The TFO TiCRX is a great suggestion  I fish one in an 8 weight and like it is a great stick for the price.   I also picked up a TFO BVK 9 weight when urban angler was going out a business for $180 and it is also a great rod.  For "budget" rods I don't think you can beat TFO.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Mossy Creek

Hi all, I will be in Harrisonburg Saturday unrelated to fishing (go Dukes) and would like to spend at least a bit of time Sunday taking a look at the public section of Mossy Creek. Unsure if they are due for the insane amount of rain as we are getting here, but I know Colby Trow swears by good fishing in a flooded Mossy Creek. I am aware it is a fairly difficult/technical under normal circumstances.

I didn't see anything super recent on a search, has anyone been out there recently with any modicum of success? Thanks in advance, and I will certainly share my (likely hungover) results.

That was indeed epic! Nice work, real dedication. TPFR definitely has room for more than one carp whisperer. You need to stand up and take a bow at the next Beer Tie.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Thoughts on an affordable 9 wt. 9- 10ft rod setup.

Not sure what you consider "economical" but I recently used a TFO TiCr X 10-wt ($299.95) and I was super impressed with it. It also comes in a 9-wt. I don't remember the reel, but it was matched with a Scientific Anglers sink tip line (of which about 5' had of the shooting head had been removed) and it was a lot of fun to cast!

I was in the area of Little Seneca Creek, so I thought I'd give it a try.  The good news is that I caught this little guy, but the bad news is that it was after two hours.  So the advice of LSC not being an epic trout stream is correct, but there are some in there.  In the first 10 mins I found a 2-3 foot hole under a tree trunk with good current.  On the first cast I got a nice hit, then nothing.  I could see 3-4 four little guys and 2 in the range of 12 inches.  I worked my way about half way to the dam with the theory that the water would be cooler and perhaps deeper.  I gave up after not seeing anything in the water and getting tangled a million times.  When I have time I'll try to make it all the way to the dam.  Has anyone else been up to the dam?  Ironically I caught this little guy back by my car just down stream of Clopper road.  Sure there are a million better places, but this place is only 25 mins from my house with no traffic.  I became inspired to give it a shot when I saw a youtube video of 10 year olds catching trout in this creek.

Gary, 

Little Seneca is a Put and Take fishery.  As far as I know, trout don't hold over the summer.  You can look at the Maryland DNR website to see the stocking schedule, but they don't put a ton of fish in.

However, Little Seneca and Seneca creek are viable suburban smallmouth streams.  You might want to switch over to smallmouth fishing.  In water that might look like trout water in a colder environment, we usually have smallmouth.

As for trout within an hour of DC - the upper Patuxent River can be good in certain sections in the state park. Wild and stocked fish. Lots of hunters this time of year though. I haven't found it to be all that easy to fish but there are plenty of browns up there.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} C&O Canal Carp Crawlin'

Great
Can you say generally what section of the canal you were fishing?
Thanks

The carp fishing on the canal was pretty epic last Saturday. I caught 3 and missed hooksets on 5-6. As you'll see in the video (accessible via the link below), though, I need to be more careful once I've got the fish in the net. Enjoy watching me crawl into and out of a storm drain. Now, none of you can ever question my commitment to catch and release.

Enjoy! https://vimeo.com/184129068

I bought a net specifically for the canal. It's got a telescoping handle that extends to 48 inches and has a huge basket.

Yea I picked up something similar, and it folds which makes it easier to carry on my bike.
