Hi all,

I've been silently lurking on the forum for a while and have been motivated to get out and fish. After picking up some flies and advice from Dan at the Clarendon Orvis, I drove out to Shenandoah National Park on Saturday to hike around and try to catch a few brook trout. I was pleasantly surprised by the fishing, the park's beauty, and the rigor of the hike. (a few photos: http://imgur.com/a/Frtt5) 

Hope to make it out to a beer tie soon and start exploring more fly-fishing options around DC.

Cheers,

Trent

I see you lurk on Reddit too (good on you, r/flyfishing needs more people), nice fish, glad you enjoyed yourself!

Thanks for the advice about WOC.  I got up there on the 4th.  Had fun till all the swimmers showed up, bad weekend choice on my part.  2 girls jumped in right in front of me as if they thought i was swimming too, definitely shocked me.  It is a pretty stream.  I only had luck in the real deep pockets of water with tiny nymphs I tie.  Not sure if I was on the part people mentioned before, the trail was on the right side of the stream the whole way?  I will have to toss a few pictures and find a way to put a video up later when i have a little time.  

Thanks,

Dan Barrett

FYI, SNP mountain streams are still fishing really well. I fished just above and below Dark Hollow Falls and upper portion of Rose River yesterday morning for about an 1.5 hours. Caught maybe 8-9 brookies with an equal amount of missed strikes using a basic attractor dry fly.

Water flows are still really strong on top of most streams off Skyline. I hiked White Oak Canyon but did not fish it. Wish I brought my fly-rod with me.
