{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Erie Steelheading question

November is prime steelheading time in Erie tribs, so expect crowd on popular streams like Walnut and Elk. Personally, I prefer Cattarraugus Creek if it's fishable, is lower flow and not muddy. Cat is more enjoyable to fish if catching rate is not the prime objective. I might head up that way next weekend as well, pending weather and stream condition. Fishing steelhead alley is all about monitoring the ever changing conditions, so it's a game time decision on when and where to go. I found this has many useful articles and strategies: http://www.johnnagysteelheadguide.com/?m=1

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Gravelly Point

Thanks for posting, Rob. The Park Service officer's suggestion that anglers have both a Virginia and DC license to fish at Gravelly is not well taken. That is just not correct. In fact, the regs are clear that only a DC license is required to fish at Gravelly Point. To fish Roaches Run, across the GW Parkway, a Virginia license is required.

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} recommendations- fly fishing destination trip to Italy and Spain

I have no specifics, but fishing in most of Europe is "Pay as you go".  not guides, but you will need to pay rod fees since most of the water is private.  You will probably want to make some contacts before you go.

Looking for recommendations on can't-miss fly fishing opportunities for Italy and Spain. Quick google searches turn up the Pyranees in Spain, and Northern Italy for cold mountain streams featuring brown trout and grayling -so that's my jumping off point.

Does anyone have any ideas for towns in which to stay and rivers in which to cast? I imagine I'll be renting a car AirBnBs along the way. I'm looking to do it on the cheap, so no lodges and guides (maybe a half day for an inexpensive guide.) 

My girlfriend is a wine lover, so Tuscany also sounds like a good option from what i see. Thanks for any and all recommendations. 

Best,

Don't have any fishing recommendations, but you should check out the Alba, Italy area for food and wine. Truffles and Barolos, can't go wrong.
