{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Guided Trip Sept/Oct

Chris Newsome would be one of your best bets for Saltwater. His site is bayflyfishing.com

That's his best time of the year too.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Anyone Need a Raft?

How old is the actual raft?  And what is that bar over the bow?

Looks like a pretty rocking setup.

I have to part with my raft.  Here are the details: 
Star Raft with custom fishing frame. The raft is a 13 foot, self bailer and has casting platforms in the front and rear for anglers. Not used at all last year and only twice the year before, so I need it to go to a good home. I'm selling it complete with the oars, anchor, and anchor line. The Cataract Oars sell for about $450 and a comparable frame is $650. A new raft will run you over $3k without the frame, oars, or anchor/anchor line! I have it posted to Craigslist if you want to take a look.  I included a quick pic since I pulled it out today and cleaned it off.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Snakehead

Best of luck! Let us know how you do! I managed 1 bass and 1 catfish out of there yesterday.

I bet you anything that's my rod. Unfortunately I'm out of state for a couple weeks...I'll have to determine whether it's worth a trip out there in a couple of weeks.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Guided Trip Sept/Oct

Hi all, My dad wants to take a guided trip sometime in september/early October this year.  He is a god awful fly caster, but would like to dabble and fall back on spin if it's not working out.  I've been trying to get him to take an Orvis class, but his schedule and mine haven't aligned...and he wants company.  I know I could certainly use it too.  Anyway, we could do a smallie float on the Shenandoah or James, but we both are quite competent at finding them by ourselves.  He is interested in salt, but I am supremely unfamiliar with it, especially in the fall.  We would love to stick to VA, Southern Maryland, or the Outer Banks.  

Are there any recommendations for fish to seek out, and guides to put us on them?  

Thank you for the wealth of knowledge and the willingness to share.

Gregg

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Harper's Ferry Trip Recommendations?

Thanks for the help all! The Shenandoah and Potomac were too high to fish from rain, but it did make river rafting more fun! White Fly Outfitters was a great shop and picked up some tying materials.

Hey all,

Long-time lurker. I'm taking my girlfriend camping at Harper's Ferry labor day weekend and would love to get some fishing in. I'll be flyfishing, she'll be spinning. Do you have a recommended spot for wading and going after smallmouth? Our campsite is the Harper's Ferry KOA in WV and would prefer to buy 1 fishing license for the weekend (only have a DC license).

Also, any fly/gear recommendations? I'm planning to bring:
  • 6 wt for me (her spincast will be setup for flies)
  • Floating line
  • Poppers
  • Clousers
  • Woolly Buggers
If there's any non-fishing must do's in Harpers Ferry I'm all ears too.
