Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Accotink report 10-16-15

Beth thinks I'll crack and want to drive to places like Funpowder again this winter when it's 25F and breezy, and my boots are frozen in the pickup bed.  I don't think so this year!  Really!  I don't want to admit this and I hope she doesn't read this, but she's always right about everything.  Seriously.  I have no good sense whatsoever.  

Actually, I think I promised that I'd never set foot in the gunpowder again just a few months ago during a conversation.  

Oh, ridiculous traffic spanning 2 separate beltways around cities I despise!  This be the last trout I'll claim from your waters!

Yep, it was cold out there yesterday!  Glad you had some luck!  

They stock some good fish in there sometimes.  

I'm planning on about 3 more weeks of fishing before Beth just won't tolerate the cold any longer.  Unlike last year when I drove absurd, stupid distances to catch 0.5 fish at a couple of tailwaters, I am NOT doing that this winter.  It's going to be casting, tying, and maybe a couple of 4MR trips to stretch fly lines.

I was able to snag a nice sized rainbow on a black bugger with some green flash yesterday. I got out pretty early and really didn't see much action until the sun started rising above the trees. Not sure if the temp had anything to do with it, as it was probably the coldest day of the year thus far. Also the water flow was essentially non-existent. Not a terrible spot all said though, I had only previously gone at Wakefield.

Due to a total change of plans, I was home alone for several hours today and wandered down to the creek.  They're in there, and DGIF seems to have stocked some real chunkers to boot.  I had one on that I think did 17", but he came off before I had the pic.  I prefer wild water, but it's not a bad way to kill time.  

Sorry -- photography isn't my strength, and I don't care enough about it to get any better ;).
