Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Naples FL fly fishing

Thanks for this Jamie. I don't know how often they are for rent, but there are specialty kayaks which you paddle with your feet. I'm assuming that near surf and/or with all the other noises that you could still fly-fish with them if you paddle slowly and quietly.

I pulled a bunch of sea trout out of the circled area a few years ago with some sink tip line and lord knows what flies/lures. I wasn't in a kayak but in a little jon boat with a low hp evinrude. I can single haul well and double haul pathetically (though I can Spey like a beast!), but to tell the truth I wasn't having to cast terribly far with the sink tip. The guy at the shop (which I of course can't remember now it being years back and a lucky unplanned half day on an exhausting work trip) told me the spot. Can't remember the store but I remember that exact spot. The rest of the day I was pulling lots of saltwater catfish out of there, with float or sink along the mangroves. Those little catfish fought pretty hard, and one of them, a feisty runt bound to have lots of kids, poked a big hole in my Merrill hiking boots! I also accidentally caught a beautiful young hammerhead, too, which amazingly didn't break my rod.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Striped Bass: Has the stock crashed

It's my understanding the extreme harvesting of baitfish, such as menhayden , is impacting striper migration. They will follow the food.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Striped Bass: Has the stock crashed


I encourage everyone to also read this article written on Fissues. 

Furthermore, S. 1520 The Modernizing Recreational Fisheries Management Act of 2018 passed the House last night and is now heading to Trump to be signed into law. 

However, this does not address the issue of NOAA issuing an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to open the EEZ to striped bass fishing. 


Happy we are talking about this!

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cacapon on the fly

My cabin is in the Crossings community in Bloommery and no its not for rent, not allowed there.   Check wvdnr website for float trips,  there are a bunch.  I have floated about 35 miles of it from cacpon bridge on rt 50 to Largent rt 9.

You can float and wade most of it.  Great smallmouth from May to November.  Gotta watch the river gauges cause it can shoot up quick.  anything above 600cfs is tough to wade anything above 1000 cfs would be real tough to float and fish.  Good access at the bridges,  but all 60+ miles are private shoreline.  I have camped on several properties just by looking up land owners and asking permission.  

Best public access is probably the rt 127 bridge or the Bloomery access in near the crossings if you want canoe/kayak access without a full commitment of a float trip,  you can wade and paddle upstream.  Most float trips are full day length and you don't want to get it a boat under 250 cfs if you have some place to be (lots of dragging).  It is one of the cleanest rivers in the state.  This is a good resource for the science of it https://www.cacaponinstitute.org/PDF/Publications/Portrait%20of%20a%20River.pdf   It is your normal low gradient smallmouth river.  Pool,  riffle,  pool riffle.  Nothing over a class 2 unless you hit it at flood stage. 

River is full of crayfish and helgramites.  You can get 100 fish days,  but probably average 14" bass.  Got quite a few over the years over 18"  and the occasional 20"  fish.  Pockets of largemouth can be found,  lots of bluegill and rock bass,  fall fish,  carp.  No cat fish,  don't know why but there just aren't.  I here Muskie like the Mouth of the cacapon where it hits the Potomac. 

Due to all the rain this is the first year as far as i can remember that i didn't do aa floattrip.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Recommendations for New River smallmouth guide

Matt Reilly fishes the New and he's been hammering musky lately according to Facebook. Never fished with him so can't speak from personal experience, but I have a very good impression of him based on his website, blog, and facebook posts. He's a young gun. I think Matt Miles fishes the New as well, but someone else should confirm. I'm jealous you're gonna fish the New, it's on my bucket list!

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Naples FL fly fishing

Hi all--rekindling this thread!

I'm going to be in Naples next week. I don't think I'll have time to do a charter/guided trip this time around--and to be honest, I need to practice my accuracy and double-haul before I invest in that--but I'd like to try and get out spend a few hours on the water. Does anyone know of anything that is doable from the beach or generally doable without a boat? 

I've found a few good resources online so far and am planning to hit up a local shop to buy some supplies, but any additional thoughts are appreciated!

Jamie

Hey guys, thanks for the response's. Now that I think of it, I did use
Mangrove Outfitters the last time I was down there. My colleague who is
attending the meeting with me is very much a novice to the sport. I told him
much the same thing you guys are telling me and that is if he can't at least
single haul this might be a very expensive lesson for him. I know it was for
me the first time I went out. I'll talk with the shop and see if we can try
to target fish that might be out of the heaviest wind. Maybe going into the
mangroves is the best bet...

The exciting bird tour to view endemics of Andaman & Nicobar.

Andaman Bulbul

Andaman & Nicobar Endemic Bird Tour

March 2nd - 15th 2019

The Andaman & Nicobars are a group of 572 picturesque Islands, mostly uninhabited in an arc in long and narrow broken chain nearly 800 kms long in the SE of the Bay of Bengal.They lie along an arc in long and narrow broken chain, approximately North-South over a distance nearly 800 kms. Their proximity to SE Asia and isolation have made it a hotspot for birding. The hilight of the tour would be the Nicobars which is rarely birded but the real haul is when you do both island groups together which boast a rich list of more than 31 endemics. The beauty is that its proximity to SE Asia throws up surprises apart from species you expect from SE Asia.

In our birding here we shall attempt to view all the practically possible Andaman & Nicobar endemics as well as some species that are difficult to view on the mainland.

Beautiful Beaches and crystal clear waters make it one of the best destinations for Scuba Diving and Snorkeling. If you are interested you can indulge in these optional activities on free days or with an extension.

Some of the species that we are likely to see Nicobar Megapode, Nicobar Pigeon, Andaman Scops-owl, Masked Owl, Andaman Woodpecker, Andaman Cuckooshrike, Nicobar Sparrowhawk, Nicobar Parakeet, Nicobar Jungle Flycatcher, Andaman Wood Pigeon, Andaman Hawk-owl, White-headed Starling, Mangrove Whistler, Chinese Pond Heron, Great Nicobar Serpent-Eagle, Nicobar Imperial-Pigeon, Nicobar Parakeet, Nicobar Glossy Starling , Andaman Green-Pigeon ,

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Florida Salt Water suggestions....

I just moved from Florida 3 months ago. Boca Grande and Anna Maria Island have some great flats and beach fishing, otherwise, most of the water until you get to Dunedin is way too busy.

I was just at St Pete in Oct and had good luck finding Snook walking along Pass-a-Grille beach.  The Snook were right in the surf zone.  There is plenty of public parking right along the beach on Gulf Way.  Also had great fun fishing the dock lights at night with Capt Dave Dant (727-744-9039).  A good fly shop for local info is Tampa Bay On the Fly.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Florida Salt Water suggestions....

Last time I was down there I fished some flats off the Skyway on my way to the Tampa airport.  It's rumored to be good for redfish but all I caught was a puffer fish.  Easy access and easy wading though.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Florida Salt Water suggestions....

Wade fishing around islamorada isn't very good but there are some spots. A few you might want to try: flats behind long key state park, beach at the end of seven mile bridge, Bahia Honda state park are a few off a f the top of my head. There is a flat at mm 76 that people fish but I've never caught anything there. Anne's beach is another spot.

Another reminder, Beer Tie is coming up tomorrow. We have a lot of sweet prizes to give out between the raffle and various contests. Dont forget to wear your ugly sweaters, and if you're interested in the raffle bring cash; sorry, we're having technical difficulties on the card reader.

The main prize in the raffle is a brand new 9' 6wt Orvis Recon rod; other sweet prizes include multiple rods, flies and ornaments. Ornaments and stationary were donated by Kevin from Kenmore Fly Shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/KenmoreFlyShop

I won't be able to attend tomorrow, but Rob, Art, and Trent will be holding down the fort.

Thanks,
Dalton
