Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Rose River

James,

I was using #16 flashback pheasant tail nymphs with no indicator, But the flows were really fast. Flow should be much slower. So maybe a dry with the nymph dropper. I understand the rainbow warrior nymph is killer. You could probably start at the trailhead and work your way up. With lower flows more pools should be evident. A did catch a 9-10" brookie about a mile up from the trailhead.

Planning to make it out there on Saturday - what flies were you using? 

Never fished the Rose before, does it pay to spend 35- 1 hour hiking up the trail to get into the really productive water then fish? Or can you start casting a bit up from the trailhead?

A friend and I hit the Rose River yesterday. We hiked in from the trailhead. Turned out to be a beautiful day but the River was really flowing. Hard to find a pool, but we did and caught some beautiful wild Brookies. One around 9-10". The other two were the typical 6-7". Forget my net so I couldn't get any fish fotos. The picture below will give you an idea of flow.
