{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Upper P Floats?

Hi all,

I'm looking for a recommendation for a stretch of the Upper P to float in a couple of weeks. I've been doing a good bit of wade fishing in the Brunswick area and having pretty good success (including multiple good sized channel cats on the fly!). But I have a couple of buddies coming into town with kayaks. We'd like to do a float the week after next. I know Brunswick to Point of Rocks is a good one, but do ya'll have recommendations for something a little higher up? We're all experienced anglers, so don't need anyone's secret rock. But it would be great to get a rec for a put-in/take-out reach. 

Requirements: Within 1.5 hours of Bethesda, where I live. Mostly non-technical water (under class 3) or portageable. All of us have whitewater experience, but we're not going to have the boats for a real rapid. Other than that, we're open to trying any and all possibilities. Smallmouth are the target species. Not super interested in trout fishing this time of year, but would be open to the possibility for walleye, musky, or whatever. 

Thanks!

Dave

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} CASTING for Sunday, 11 August (second Sunday of the month)

We will have our casting get together on Sunday, 11 August at Fletcher's Cove from 8am to 11am.

Come on out, whether you are a novice, intermediate, or advanced caster, it is all fun to work on solving casting problems and casting challenges.

Additionally, we will work on FFI Casting Skills challenges for anyone interested.

If you are just getting started, this is a great way to meet people who can help.  There will be casting instructors on hand.
If you are preparing for an upcoming trip and looking to re-fresh your casting skills, this is a great opportunity.

Note that I myself won't be in attendance due to attending SpeyNation in New York that weekend.

Regan
