Dropped my kid off at camp near Rose River Farm yesterday. The Robinson down there had huge mats of green algae floating on the top. Didn't see much of a current. The Rappahannock off 29 looked like more sand than water. Didn't think we could get lower water than end of last summer. Rob SnowhiteFly Fishing Consultant Podcast...

We're seeing regular warning about about algae blooms due to low water and high temps on both forks of the Shenandoah, so HAB mats are only a matter of time. I'd look at the Upper Potomac, which is still low but clear.On Mon, Jul 15, 2024 at 7:11 AM <tidal-potomac-fly-rodders@googlegroups.com> wrote: ...

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Smallmouth

I've had some pretty good days on yellow gurglers and on streamers of various kinds. Plenty of nice smallmouth around, although this heat wave is probably putting them down. Last week I also landed four channel cats on a blue/black clawdad. Should pick up with some rain and cooler temps later this week.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Smallmouth

My guy Travis Edens who guides on both rivers says the bite has been incredibly strong in the spring and early summer but with the lack of rain it's been a bit more erratic. Apparently topwater bite has been strong.

We'll be tying up green/black dog day cicada flies next week. I fished these on the Patapsco with Misty a year or so ago and caught a lot of smallies and red ear sunfish. Easy to tie.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} TPFR Long Sleeve Shirts

The shirts are true to size. I'm a medium and I'm wearing a medium. Sorry, should have mentioned that!Also i mis- identified the date of the next beer tie. It's on the 15th instead of the 8th because it's always after casting church and casting church is the second Sunday of every month. Because the second Sunday and the second Monday are separated this month, beer tie moves.On Thu, Jul 4, 2024, 12:04 PM 'Greg Feder' via Tidal...
