Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Anybody fished Pass Run in SNP for bows?

A better question might be "what is the best decision to make as an angler in the event that you catch 1-8" Conway brown trout?  ;)

Hey -- I've very, very happy with the tone here guys!  If you aren't sarcastic or cynical, you aren't trying.  

So, if I posted a picture to this forum of myself strangling a 20" Conway brown with dry hands, am I a jerk or just sage?

That may be a question for the philosophers --

Bobby if you're willing to share (privately if you prefer) where I can find some wild browns other than Conway or Rose Rivers, I'd greatly appreciate it! I agree with your point about climate change.

Just want to be clear I was not advocating messing with any existing brook trout populations - just saying I would enjoy if there currently were a few more streams in the park with non-brook trout. As in, already messed with decades ago, like the Conway.

Getting back to Pass run though...A lot of times when you have a freestone headwater stream rolling off a mountain into a limestone valley, somewhere around that transition area the stream will sink underground in low flows. Don't know if that happens in this case but there could be a section like that which helps stop the rainbows from making it into the park section.  In that case you might expect to find a few in the brookie section after sustained high water. I know of some streams in PA where this happens though usually with browns being the invaders.
