{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Oak Orchard - Dec 9th

Hi Everyone,

Been a while since I've posted here, but always appreciate the amazing insight from those on this forum.

Im heading up with some friends to fish Oak Orchard near Albion, NY, hoping to get into some steelhead, browns, and maybe a zombie or two haha!  Ive had mixed luck at the Salmon River the past 2 years, and am looking for a change of scenery, and to get away from the full-on salmon crowds and hopefully fewer snaggers.  

Any tips anyone could provide on the following items would be greatly appreciated:

1) locations and tactics - I have seen many videos of people bottom bouncing and indicator nymphing.  Any comments on preferred tactics, and tips on weight/setup would be great too.  SO far I have been unable to find if people are going down to 4x to get into fish here, or keeping things at 2-3x and hopefully keeping a few more on the line.

2) flies - I have been tying egg patterns in sizes 10-14, mayflies and caddis in size 14, and black and brown stoneflies in size 12.  Any advice on specific patterns, colors, or comments on whether I am tying the right bugs would be great!  (I am the one tying flies for the three of us...I'm feeling the pressure and hope these flies work for us!)

3) lodging - we are looking for a place to stay (on the cheaper side) that is fisherman friendly.  Doing some research as well, however all pointers are helpful :)

Thanks again guys and sending tight lines all around!

- Miguel
