{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Rapidan River

That's pretty crazy. It's lost all color too. 

I have been fishing oyster bars a lot recently and haven't seen any with coloration like that. Could it be a super old oyster?


As far as how it got there, I have 0 clue.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Rapidan River

I found an oyster shell in the upper Rapidan last weekend. Any theories on how it got there? Evolution...birds...camping in style??

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} North Myrtle Beach (House Creek)

I'm heading to North Myrtle Beach near House Creek for the week of 4 july.  Taking my kayak.

Anyone fished here?  I'm assuming redfish, sea trout, and some other suprises (tarpon reportedly around).  Any tips appreciated.  

Any good bluegill ponds for kids around?

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Brook Trout Movements in the Savage

WOW!  Amazing how far some of those fish moved.  Thanks for sharing, I love reading this kinds of studies and wish they were done more often.

I've always felt that people underestimate the height of barriers that fish can get around, this study supports that. Makes sense when you see the typical 3-5 ft high waterfall in SNP with fish thriving above and below.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Zip/ZNada: 4-Mile Run Sunday evening

Great feedback!  It probably has more to do with my confidence than reality.  There is no question that I enjoy fly fishing more than anything, so I will continue to push my comfort zone. 

That's why this is a great forum. Thanks. 

Gary.

Bobby, definitely agree with you on casting. I'm certainly no master but I would say 40-50 feet is the furthest I can cast in ideal weather, even with a double haul (ok, I'm still learning this technique). That said, my biggest bass was caught last summer on a pond in a boat with a popper at about 20 feet away. The fly hit the water, I waited a sec and then gave it a pop and fish was on. Last summer I caught a good smallmouth across from Fletcher's in one of the rowboats and that was probably in the 15-20 foot range, too.

Bobby (and Rob),

I don't know any reliable fly fishing shops; however, Finactics in OCNJ is a good all around fishing shop and can give you plenty of tips. The thing with saltwater is finding fish - once you find them your chance of hooking up, regardless of fishing method, skyrockets. I've been carrying both a spin rod and a fly rod. The spin rod is great for prospecting and covering water. Once you find the fish, break out the fly rod.

Rob, enjoy the food. And I hope you catch a huge shark in the surf!

Good luck!

The spin rod is great for prospecting and covering water. Once you find the fish, break out the fly rod.

Rob, enjoy the food. And I hope you catch a huge shark in the surf!

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: advice needed: 4 days in Ithaca, NY

I used to fish the finger lakes quite a bit.  Most of the streams flowing into the south end of Cayuga get runs of trout and salmon in the fall and spring, but there are not likely to be any around this time of year.  If you are interested in trout, one option would be salmon creek about the falls.  It is mostly a stocked fishery but I used to do ok up there.  If you want wild fish, Cayuga inlet will have juevenile rainbows that might get up to 8 or 9 inches.  There are tons of public fishing areas and there will be absolutely no one up there fishing.  I never fished Fall Creek above the falls, but I believe they stock up there.  Those three streams are all within a 10-15 minute drive from Ithaca and receive virtually no pressure outside of the spring run or stocking.  Fall Creek flows right through town/Cornell and is worth stopping by just to check out the falls.

As far as the lake itself, you are generally going to need a boat.  One spot that used to be popular was the outflow at Miliken Station.  It has been years since I've been there, but it is a warmwater discharge that would attract trout and salmon during the colder months.  Not sure what is there during the summer, but I would guess the outflow might still attract fish.    

If you feel like driving, Catherine Creek flows into Seneca and probably has juevenile wild rainbows and maybe a couple resident fish.  There is tons of access there was well. 

One other thing you may want to look into is the Brown Drake or Hex hatch over on Skaneatles.  This would be right at dark but can bring a lot of fish up.  June is normally the time but it could still be going.

From what I can tell, the lake may be an ok option for bass/pickerel/maybe trout?, as long as I have a full-sink line available, and some of the tributary streams have smallmouth below & trout above their falls. Looking for a little more in-depth guidance and recs, though.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: advice needed: 4 days in Ithaca, NY

I fish Canandaigua Lake a lot and this time of year I have the best luck with bass.  Pickerel will bite, but fall and early spring is much better for them.  I don't have too much experience with the trout up there, but i'd imagine most of them have moved back into the lakes by now and are getting down deep. The same can be said for the lakers.  This time of year, you'd have to go out trolling deep.  Closer to Ithica is Waneta lake, a small one at the base of Keuka.  I grew up pounding this lake for bass.  It's an amazing fishery, buy horribly weedy.  I haven't ever fly fished it, but topwater at dawn dusk used to be the ticket with chuggers, jitterbugs, and poppers.  Whatever you would throw should either float or have a weed guard.  With all these lakes, I have the best luck around point and creek mouths where there is ample grass. Fish along drop-offs.  Clousers and crayfish patterns have been my late morning early evening ticket while I use poppers and big foam bugs at night.  Many of these lakes get busy during the day and the fisheries have certainly suffered for it, but you should be able to at least get into a few bass, a slew of rock bass, yellow perch, and maybe a few other critters.  

Sorry to say I don't have any Ithica specific intel, so worth calling some tackle shops.

There were fish there.  Saw some big ones rise up, and a few leaner looking fish make jumps clear of the water.  No idea what they were after, but I wasn't imitating them too well to earn their interest.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Jersey Shore fishing

I'm heading up to Wildwood Crest Thursday night. I'm planning on fishing the jetty at Cold Spring inlet. You have to access the beach from the WW Crest side at the Coast Guard gate along Ocean Drive. I'm going to park in the lot and then walk south down the path to the beach and then to the rocks. It's a long walk, but that's one of the few spots I can imagine that will be holding fish this time of year that you can get to without a boat.

I'd love some company. Happy to try any other spots.

I will say that I haven't fished much from shore there, and am a novice when it comes to saltwater fly fishing.

Shoot me an email: lmccabe81@gmail.com. Maybe we can coordinate one morning.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Any spots in historic Harpers Ferry?

I fished Harper's Ferry on Sunday. Water was about a foot higher than I like, but still had success despite some sketchy wading and strong winds. Lots of 10-14" smallmouth. Fished with black poppers and clawdad patters, but the standard green and white clouser minnow was the ticket for the day.  


There are literally countless spots for access around Harper's Ferry.  Steve Moore has written an excellent guide to attacking the upper Potomac on foot: Wade and Shoreline Fishing the Potomac River for Smallmouth Bass: Chain Bridge to Harpers Ferry, by Steve Moore 
Using that book to find your access point, cross reference with satellite imagery from Google Maps and you'll see the spiderweb of possible runs to target. 

The Needles is an excellent suggestion. Parking is limited, but there is an infinite amount of pocket water to explore and navigating into the middle of the river is fairly easy. As Steve Moore iterates and reiterates many times in his book, it is recommended to bring a wading staff and/or PFD- especially if you're wearing full waders.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Jersey Shore fishing

I'm not super familiar with that area but I have fished it before. From what I gather, you can definitely find snapper blues, maybe stripers, and definitely flounder if you feel like dredging with heavy clousers. Bring bug repellent!!! Tried to walk to a spot in a marsh last year in the evening and got eaten alive.

Same here! I'll be in the Central Jersey near Lavalette if anyone has any suggestions.

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know if there is any opportunities to fly fish for something in the tidal marshes in South Jersey?  Heading to the beach this weekend and would love to have a reason to bring the whippy stick.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Any spots in historic Harpers Ferry?

Thanks for all the advice! Day after the wedding was a little rough, so didn't get a chance to make it out to fish. But did make it down to the river to check it out.  Stand by Morgan's assessment, it was fast and windy.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Hilton Head Area

I was going to fish with Tuck Scott (by recommendation from someone on this forum) last October but that damn hurricane closed down the hotel i was going to stay at and i had to cancel.  I'm still angry about it.

I fished with Chris Mattson a couple years ago. He was a good guy, knew the area well. He doesn't focus on fly fishing, so you may be better off trying someone else that can help teach the saltwater differences better. Bay Street Outfitters has a bunch of guides that do fly fishing only. It may be super busy, so I'd start calling around now. Luckily, you're pretty central to Hilton Head, Savannah, and Beaufort if you don't mind driving a little bit.
