Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Holmes

ahhh ok I think I know what you mean. I stole a few streamers from a buddy of mine that would I would definitely call tinsel looking. Haven't had a chance to fish them yet. I'll give them a try next time I go out.

It's either an economy-sized version of this:


Or an incredibly shiny, fairly obnoxious tinsel-looking minnow from those 2 dudes over at the cow creek.

Brendan,

Thanks for the advice. Forgive my rookie question but can you show me an example of what you mean by trimmed kreelex?

Don't overthink... Copper john/pellet nymph or smallish streamer. trimmed (cut tail down) kreelex is a sure bet on these fish. stockies rarely hold in fast moving water so look for slow and deep. great place to practice nymphing.

Ugh why am I having so much trouble catching fish there?  I'm definitely still a rookie but I can't believe how long this drought is.

I took off of work on Monday for my birthday and decided to head up the road to Holmes for a couple hours. Turned out to be a great time. Landed a 10-12 inch and three 3-4inch ones as well. I was using a tandem setup with a yellow egg pattern and a black wooly bugger about 6 inches below. Hope to be able to get a few more before the real winter hits.

ps. I tried to post this earlier so my apologies if this came in twice.

Fished Holmes Run today. Got out late, lost the sun and it got chilly, especilly sticking the hands in the drink. Fish were holding deep in the pools. 6-12 per, saw a few darting around the shallows. Passed a gentlemen swinging streamers, he said he had "no luck, but they were following". Well i may have cheatefd but i hung a nymph about 6 in under an oragne egg and it worked out well. Good portion of them turned on it and had 4 take. Fished from the downed tree by the pool up to the first crossing, 3 hrs.

Im not familiar with the area but through this website and the VDGIF I found my way to Holmes. Also stopping today at Orvis to increase my arsenal I was invited to your next "Beer Tie". First impression of this group is impressive. 

Cheers. Safe Travels,

Bret
