I had a few days off of work this week so I decided to head up to the Gunpowder River to give it a go. I parked at masemore road and fished my way up almost to the prettyboy dam. Landed a couple of decent browns, all of which were on nymphs, and had one that was about 13-14 inches. Spent some time fishing with caddis and terrestrials but couldn't get any action on dries. Around the bridge at falls road I saw tons of decent sized fish, and a few large ones, that were laying on the bottom. I threw nymphs and streamers at them but couldn't get them to move. Are these carp? Does anybody know?
-- Today I decided to head out to seneca creek, right below river road, to see if I could find any fish there. In only about 2 hours I caught a smallie, a few largemouth, a rockbass(which was my first), countless bluegill, and what I think was a red breasted sunfish. All bass were on a chartreuse clouser size 4, and many of the bluegill were on poppers and terrestrials. Was a great time and will hopefully be back out there soon.
Also, I'm looking for a place somewhere in Virginia, West Virginia, or Pennsylvania, within a 3 hour drive or so of DC to do some backpacking, camping, and of course a lot of fishing, preferably for trout. Does anybody know of any good trails/trout rivers where camping is permitted within 3 hours or so of DC??
Thanks,
Jason
