Ahh, noted-I should really keep more up to date on the scuttlebutt.

I second what Sean said!  Smallie fishing has been epic the last 8-12 weeks at Harpers Ferry for those of use who actually visit and fish it.  Even in the low and slow water of the lower staircase, where the Shenandoah meets the Potomac, fish were actively feeding!  We boated over 40 smallies last week, most were 15-16" with the biggest measuring 20".  We had similar #s on a float 6 weeks ago and about 20 fish 4 weeks ago after the cold front.  

Ditto on Travis Edens, few know this stretch of water better than him.

I'd skip it. Water is low and slow. I haven't heard a good report from neighbors going up there in a while. Call White Fly shop and see if they have daily reports and input. No rain in forecast for a while. 

The pepperoni roll at the bakery in harpers ferry is worth the trip.

Hi all, I was thinking of making this trip and wanted to ask if there was any word on if the smallmouth fishery has recovered in the past few years or if it's still hot garbage and I should just focus my energies on the Susquehanna/Raphannock/James.
