Mark, If I didn't know better, I'd suspect you were trolling. Perhaps you could take those opinions on bamboo offline because we have so many bamboo devotees...
Jim, Saturday, there were stones. I caught a few brownies on #16 PHTs (legless, on scud hooks), #18 patridge and yellow, and #22 para midges (dun hackle,...
I was overhasty in suggesting that, in my opinion, there was no room on the listserv for a discussion of the pleasures of the bamboo rod. As an act of...
Little Black Stonflies were coming off pretty well on a section of water in Frederick County. It made me wish I was chasing fish that morning instead of...
Does anyone have a recipe for tying foam little back stoneflies? I read about them somewhere recently and cannot place my finger on it. Unfortunately, I...

Let me pick up on Sean's point about Jersey fishing. Report I have is that something like a near record 80 pounder was taken off the beach at Long Beach Island...
Spent a few hours on BHC last week and managed only one fish but it was a lovely male rainbow with brilliant coloring. Midges and black stoneflies were being...

WOW! Thanks for all of the information! I have the book and like that little fly. I now have the article to go along with it. I finally figured out where I...
Did anyone get out and fish the section of water below Brighton Dam this past year? Wasn't 2006 the first year of catch & release? I did not make it this...
The Patuxent below Brighton was a bit of a disappointment last year....We stocked a total of 700 adult browns and 500 rainbows early last spring (actually in...
