Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Maryland Trout

I second Jeff's comment. 

If you won't mind to drive extra hour and extra stays, Savage river is in western MD and several good rivers near by it. I have a book "Guide to Maryland Trout Fishing" by Charlie Gelso & Larry Coburn (8 or 9 dollars for used book I got). It has rich information, map with park lots, trails, etc. It is BIG plus and I read/use it all time. You can order it on Amazon. Sometime Orvis stores sells it.

Two of my visits were from the Masemore Rd access point and work upstream until the Falls Rd bridge. Those were both of the less crowded trips, and I had the most success in that stretch. I accesses once from the Falls Rd access point (which is further above the bridge), and that's where I found the elbow to elbow conditions and also got skunked (had one follow on a streamer, but it was also later in the season so not quite apples to apples).

Do you have a place you particularly like to start out?

I have fairly limited experience there so take this for what you will, but the first time I went, I saw one person. The second time, it was elbow to elbow. The most recent time, I saw maybe 6 or 7 other anglers over 10 hours and about 1.5 miles of river, so it wasn't empty, but not enough people to make me feel like I was limited in fishing territory. The elbow-elbow trip was an unseasonably warm weekend after Thanksgiving, while the other two were nice, random fall days.

Not particularly familiar with either of those two rivers, but I love the Gunpowder. I have done a fairly minimal amount of fishing for trout in rivers, and I've generally done well there.

Was thinking about heading up to Maryland to trout fish this weekend. I've fished VA pretty heavily but never been into Maryland. Just based off a little research and talking to buddies was thinking about Friends Creek or Big Hunting Creek.

Anyone got any experience/ suggestions for a MD novice?

Thanks
