Andrew more than happy to carpool with you.  I live in the McLean area so its a quick hop over to Arlington, send me your number.

Jack, what is the game plan for you as I know you want to get back early and likely I will not be leaving that early?  More than happy to pick you up as well.

FYI...I am vaxxed, boosted and had COVID after all three shots...

All, 

Looking forward to attending my first TPFR Gunpowder outing on Sunday.  Quick question—is there anyone that is driving from the greater DC area that I could hitch a ride with?  I am in Georgetown, but happy to help out with gas $ etc. if someone would be willing to grab me Sunday morning.  

Best regards,

Jack

Hey, Bill. 

I'd love to hear from the G'power guides who might be joining us. 

For what it's worth. there's plenty of room to swing a 9', and I'll be using a 4 wt so that I can cast small-fly rigs under a yarn indicator. 

Best, 
Owen

Thanks Rich- really going to try to make this. Any "ball park" ideas on equipment and fly choices? I assume small (midge, etc.) tailwater-type flies, but are streamers a possibility? Is a 3 wt. too small? Is a 9' rod too big? 7'6" too .... nevermind I'll bring the whole closet!
Thanks-
Bill

Come join TPFR on the Gunpowder River for a casual day of fishing.

 

When:     Sunday February 20th   8 am until whenever 

Where:    Gunpowder Falls – Masemore Road access point - See attachment for details and directions.

 

Fly fishers of the Tidal Potomac variety – we're going fishing on the Gunpowder again!  This is the same event that you have previously read about and/or attended from last September on the water with TPFR.  This was successful enough that we've decided to do it again, with a little change in the morning this time with pancakes and coffee.

 

The Gunpowder Fishing Day will be free form - show up, eat pancakes and drink coffee, meet folks, chew the fat, go fish, and relax amidst the beautiful surroundings of the Gunpowder.  While not intended to be a casting church, If you arrive before 10 am, some casting Instructors and the other usual suspects from the Sunday Casting Church will be on hand to help.   We will also have a few anglers & guides that are more knowledgeable about the Gunpowder River at the event to help folks that are new to this location or would like to improve their knowledge about this river.

 

If you haven't been to the Gunpowder, this will be a fun way to fish this tailwater of the Pretty Boy Reservoir, just north of Baltimore and put some of those casting skills to use.  For more information about Gunpowder Falls see the MD site.

 

Looking forward to seeing you all there.

 

Richard

TPFR Board member

 

This gathering will follow the same guidelines for health and safety that we use for the Casting Churches and Beer Ties.   The State of Maryland nor Baltimore County have mask requirements relevant to this event. Please use your best judgment for your personal safety and that of others.  If you are ill, or suspect you might be, please rest up at home.
