Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Rapidan report

The Rap never fails.  I was up there last weekend and had about the same day as you, minus the 14" trout. But still was sunny and dry so no complaints.

Thanks,

Dan Barrett

Khalil and I went out to the Rapidan yesterday and had a great day. A good number of brookies, including my biggest ever, and one that Khalil alllllmmmost landed, which he swears was 14" long and fat like fat Elvis. I didn't see it, but I have no reason to doubt him. Little fish were on midges and caddis patterns, the bigger fish on nymphs and buggers.

As fun as it was, it was also a beat down. There were three distinct slips where I was sure I broke my Superfine, but somehow it was unscathed. I, however, am scathed. I sprained my wrist, my knees are bruised, and just about everything aches this morning. It's fishing as a contact sport.
