The 2nd and 3rd I fished with a buddy down near JMU.  The morning of the second we hit Dry Run for some brookies.  We landed some nice 6-8 inch fish.  He has caught many in the 9-11inch range during the fall.  Later that afternoon we hit Mossy Creek.  He landed a 9in bow and i lost a brown that looked to be in the 15-18in range.  The 3rd we fished Mill Creek iin the morning and shifted over to Maury Run in the afternoon.  In Mill i landed a few hold over rainbows that were pushing 14 inches.  I have no feedback from Maury.  It is a huge river that had many pockets that were over 8 feet deep, and all I ended up with was a tiny small mouth.  Majority of the trip we were tossing a bunch of flies i tied,  San Juan worms, black zebra midges and prince nymphs.  All in all it was a great trip seeing an old buddy and we got into some fish and got to see 4 new rivers.  If anyones plannin on goin that way, i can give some tips we learnt that were are decently detailed to a certain river.  

Tight lines,

my experience with the Maury is that it has never fished nearly as good as it looks, whether for bass or trout...beautiful river, mediocre fishing.
