Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Massanutten Guide Recommendations

I would recommend an outfitter rather than an individual guide. If you're floating the river, you'll have to be on two separate rafts. It'll be easiest to coordinate the group through one of those places rather than two individual guides. I'd personally recommend Albemarle Angler (read my review here). Mossy Creek Fly Shop and Murray's Fly shop both also operate in the region. I haven't used Mossy Creek, but I have used Murray's. I think they contract a lot of their work out to local individual guides (at least they did the one time I used them, and the guide gave me that impression), so it may be a little more challenging to work with them.

I will caution you though - the end of October is pretty late in the season for smallmouths. You can get them year round, but it starts getting a lot more challenging that point in the season. Most of the outfitters will have switched to trout by then, and I'm not sure if they'll even still offer smallmouth floats that late.

Call Mossy Creek Gly Shop in Harrisonburg. Colby and Brian Trow know that area very well.   I've personally seen them work on several occasions.  They will get you on fish and you will have a great time. Both are very knowledgeable and great guys.
