Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Steelheading Recommendations

If you want to fish the erie tribs in ny, look up cattaraugus creek outfitters. They have private water on the premier erie trib as well as cabins right on the river that you can rent. I believe Nick Pionessa is guiding for them. Great guy and no one more knowledgeable about swinging flies for great lakes steelhead. If you decide to diy i would highly recommend going mid week if at all possible. ...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Rose River

PSA: the brook trout season is IMO probably over unless you go waaaay the fuck into the mountains or to the one brookie stream in MD that I strongly suspect is basically a mountain limestoner, but for future reference the park streams have some fairly big fish if you know where to look and are willing to be a bit more careful about hatches.On...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Rose River

Nice-that's a good sized brookie! I got a bit too into brookie fishing this spring, but mostly in the southern end of the park b/c it's closer to where I go to school in Charlottesville.On Friday, May 14, 2021 at 7:01:16 PM UTC-4 brad dreisbach wrote:also where i caught my first trout. have been fishing it quite a bit this spring and have...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: It has begun

Cicadas or not, this is the best time for bass and bluegill fishing. spawn, post-spawn. The water is warm enough for them to be active, All the bugs are out, giving them a good food supply, and the water is cool enough that they still have a lot of oxygen.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: It has begun

I've given it a go in my neighborhood the last couple days, Campo has trained our fish but the bluegills are certainly taking naturals and artificials now. All fish caught had bulging stomachs.Dalton -- http://www.tpfr.org --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders"...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Steelheading Recommendations

Great Lakes steelheading is primarily a fall activity (There are some spring opportunities, but fall is more dependable). There are great runs in Michigan, but from DC, your best bets are Erie or Ontario runs. The Erie season seems to be about mid-October til the streams freeze over. I've gone fishing in December and been breaking through ice when wading and was still able to catch some fish out of the...
