Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: nearby trout

Jeff - I was in the same boat as you when I moved to this area. The extent of my trout fishing was stocked fish in lakes. Going after the brookies definitely helped my understanding of where to find trout in bigger/non-mountain stream waters. At the end of the day, nothing beats practice and some trial and error. That process can definitely be accelerated by hiring a guide for a day or at least a half day, like Carl suggested. 

A river I haven't seen mentioned yet is the Gunpowder in MD. It's around 1.5 hours away from Arlington. It can be challenging at certain times of the year, but in a month or so, you'll be able to go up there with an ant and they'll go crazy for it. That will really give you a good idea of where they lay that time of year.

Great article, Gene.  If there is one thing I struggle with, it's knowing how to locate areas where trout would feed. I've been a warm water Fisher my whole life and am new to trout fishing. I'm learning just how much more challenging it is....but I like the challenge.

Thanks again.

Jeff
