Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} SF Shenandoah

Very nice. 

Yesterday did the south fork at Alma from  9 to 3. A bunch of 6", 2-10", 1-12" and the proverbial monster that got away. 

6wt (which I broke) 3x leader green beadhead wooly buggers(they didn't like the black) and a green sculpin. 

The "One That Got Away" put up quite a fight in the current. I played it too hard and it broke the leader. Somewhere in the SF there's a ginormous smallmouth with a wooly bugger in its jaw. My fault. I feel bad. (Truth telling, Gene)

Oh, I dunno.  I usually do 'em with lead eyes, tail, and palmered up to the head.  Then I usually just dub something around the eyes to make a "head".  The one above is bead chain, but with some lead wire wrapped on the shank to essentially = lead eyes. 

 

Note that anyone telling you that there's a certain fly you "gotta have" in order to catch warm water fish is either a liar or someone who doesn't fish very much ;).  

 

It's killing me to get home instead of fishing on a Sunday -- but hopefully this prep for RMNP makes it worth while later this week!
