Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Rapidan or Mossy?

Id pick mossy over rapidan this time of year personaly.  if you head up to to rapidan, its a rough road getting in without a suv.  rapidan has better scenery for sure.  if your ok with a drive, id suggest the jackson.  above the dam its around 40 CFS and below dam it is about 200-300 CFS. there are some spots ive found for wading.  if you are both good with covering water then you can hit a variety of spots on the jackson in a day.  i live out by winchester and can get down there in abou 3 hours.  if you end up down there and want some other advice, hit me up dannytbarrett@gmail.com. i spent my entire spring break in that part of the state.  7 days and never fished the same part of river and almost fished a different river each day.

Tight lines,

Hello all,
 
A buddy and a I are going to take a day trip for some trout this weekend and are trying to decide between Mossy Creek and the Rapidan.  We're cool with the couple hour drive to get there, so that's not an issue.  But neither of us have ever fished either place, so just looking for input.
 
I've heard Mossy trout are spooked very easily and it's a tough place to fish.  But I also don't know if the water temp is still low enough this late in the summer for the Rapidan.  We just want to catch a few trout and soak in some scenery.
 
Any other river or stream suggestions are welcome too, we're just jonesing for some trout.
 
Any thoughts or input from anyone would be great!  Thanks!
