{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Dolly Sods

Hey, I hit Dolly last November.  I brought along a 3 weight and tried a little on Red Creek.  It was very cold (20's) so I fished less than I would have liked.  From what I understand, there used to be a good number of trout, but the water has acidified greatly.  I didn't see a single trout and only caught one fallfish.  As I said, I didn't spend too much time fishing and have heard rumors there are still some fish, so I's carry the rod as it's only a little extra weight on an overnighter.

Good luck and I hope you find trout!  At the very least, Dolly Sods is wonderful and so different from most backpacking around here.

Morning, 

I'm headed to the Dolly Sods this weekend for an overnight backpacking trip that will take me across Big Stonecoal Run and Red Creek. I've spent some time around Seneca Rocks before, but this will be my first backcountry trip in the Sods. 

I'm expecting these streams to be small and not hold many fish, but I thought I'd post here and see if any one has experience fishing them (or tips on fly-fishing in the Monongahela, generally).

TY,
Hudson
