Glue recommendations

namfos <mark.sofman@gmail.com>: Dec 13 11:29AM -0800 UV adhesives are expensive. For most fly heads Sally Hansen Hard As Nails nail polish will do the trick. Thin out the fibers of the brush in the bottle so you can avoid slopping too much polish around. It's easier to apply with a smaller brush. Plus you can thin it with acetone (which is what nail polish thinner is).   Mark   On Thursday, December 12, 2024 at 6:09:41 PM UTC-5 HermanyorFlorida wrote:

Hello All,

I tied some streamers a few uh... months ago at the Tie One On event in Leesburg, VA. I didn't get any glue for finishing the heads, so I haven't fished them at all. Looking for recommendations on a glue to do this and also to cover up the nick in the shell on one of my floating lines.

Thanks!

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Everglades this week....

Despite the weather (cold front) on Monday, we managed to get this nice 10-15lb tarpon to take a fly in Everglades National Park (Flamingo).  I was using my lightweight 6wt, and we got several good jumps before bringing him to net.  Other 2 days we caught huge numbers of peacock bass in the freshwater canals between Miami and Naples. Capt. Jason Sullivan risingtidecharters@gmail.com was our guide.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: North Branch Potomac (Wild Rainbows)

If you post your questions on the Potomac Patuxent TU forum you're likely to get some helpful responses from very knowledgeable fly anglers.

Over the past 4 years I have tried to get out and fish on the North Branch of the Potomac (below the dam) multiple times per year.  I have heard varying reports as to whether the river holds truly wild rainbows.  I understand that both MD/WV stock rainbows in the river as well as fingerlings.  However, based on conversations with guides in the area, the population of natural, wild rainbows in the system has increased significantly over the past few years.  Based on the hundreds of rainbows (both stocked and wild) I have caught out of the system over the past ~4 years, it has become fairly easy for me to distinguish between the wild, fresh stockers, and holdover rainbows (i.e. please see below for a picture of a wild rainbow that was caught this July).  

 

I wanted to see if anybody else has had a similar experience in catching more wild rainbows over the past few years in the North Branch (specifically between Barnum and the confluence with the lower savage).

 

Also, wanted to see if anybody has had any luck catching any of the giant browns in the system.  I have dedicated full days of floating miles of the system (Barnum - Rawlings) searching for that one big fish.  Over the past ~1.5 years I have pulled out a ~21.5 and ~23 inch brown (these fish were caught approximately 15 minutes apart) and about 6 fish in the ~18.5 - 20 inch range.  With the exception of 1 of these larger browns, they have all come on enormous articulated streamers between December - March.  Wanted to know if other anglers dedicate significant time on this river specifically targeting the giant browns that inhabit this river.  I often wonder what the biggest brown in the system is (I'm thinking ~27 inches), and also curious if anybody has every done a float on the North Branch using mice patterns.  

 

Also, posting a few pics including a 23 inch brown (North Branch) 17.5 inch brown (lower savage), and possibly the state record fall fish (wish I weighed it), humble brag!

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: North Branch Potomac (Wild Rainbows)

Good god I haven't fished there in so long! Yea, I remember you could get some of the big ones on hopper-dropper type rigs on floats when I went but it was always a chancy thing and you really only had one or two good shots at one.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Drone for the Everglades...?

The DJI drone family always had good quality - you can probably find a reasonably priced previous generation for sale.

Your biggest barrier to use will be the software, since most now have the no-fly-zones GPS programmed. I think the DJIs are all like that. Now assuming you beat that, you can probably get away with using it in Biscayne National Park. I've never seen NPS anywhere around there, and FWC is more interested in controlling all the drunk people on the sandbars than looking out for drones. 

Staying completely legal, you don't have a ton of options, and you may be limited more by driving distance depending on where you're staying. The flats in Biscayne Bay are almost exclusively NPS territory. Everglades park boundary runs along the gulf side of the keys, but mostly with +/-1 mile buffer from land, until roughly Long Key. So until that point, you're limited to ocean side flats or the near-shore gulf side flats. Further south, you're fine anywhere. You can go north of ENP into some of the canals for peacock bass, too. Another option is the gulf park boundary isn't terribly far from Flamingo, and it's stone crab season, which means just outside of the park boundaries, you can find tripletail on the stone crab trap buoys. So weather dependent, you could always ask the guide to run to the traps, but to me, that's a bit of a waste if you only have one day booked.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Drone for the Everglades...?

May, I suggest checking the national park rules if you plan to be within the boundaries of Everglades National Park?
