Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Chasing Vermiculatedbacks in Shenandoah National Park

Glad to hear its still good fishing. I was think about heading to the Thornton North Fork next weekend.

I know summertime generally has people out chasing bronzebacks, but I have been unable to cast a fly at a trout in a couple months and had a really bad jones for some Vermiculatedbacks. Given that it has been a cool summer I headed out to Shenandoah National Park for some brook trouting, figuring the water may be low but should be cool. Thermo read 63f at 2:00pm. I missed the first few strikes until I got my timing back. Ants, Beetles, and Hoppers all worked. The best fun of the day was when I put on a size 6 or 8 cartoon hopper... it was big and obnoxious, but the big fish took savage strikes at it. The water was low and the fish were spookier than normal, but the fishing was still good. LOTS of rain on the drive back, I would bet the large influx of cool water will have the northern park streams fishing well the next few days. Walk slow to pick off the big fish at the tail of the pool.
