Managed to string 5 keeper size 9-10 inch range with 1 being 11 inches. Also on the same 3" fly caught smallmouth, yellow perch and rockfish but surprisingly no shad. The day before I couldn't keep them off my line. Show more

Fished the Cecil side of the Susky last evening and FINALLY had the fly rod come tight on hickory shad, rockfish and white perch. The hicks were on fire every drift was a tug, flash or bite. The problem I had with perch was keeping the bait away from the shad. The perch were small no big ones. The Dam was running 42,000 cfs water was clean and clear didn't get a temp. Show more

Just the right weight and profile easy to cast with a 5wt with straight floating line. Weight forward will carry a little more distance then I was getting. Overall I can't wait to use this once the 2021 Cicadas hatch ramps up. Show more

I was busy all weekend. Had an hour on Saturday and I took it. This pretty little brownie took a sulfur off of the surface. Made my weekend.

Tried, minnows, soft plastic, hard plastic, fly and no snakes. We had one shiner bit in half assume that was a snake. Water temp drop maybe shut them off. Cool ramp shot. Show more

We had constant action of pickups and drops and brought about 20 fish to hand. All were in the 10-20lb range..... loads of fun. Tried out the a cool measuring app on my phone. It was pretty accurate that fish was almost exactly 27". I plan to try it out next year for catch and release to minimize time out of the water. You can get a measurement and picture at the same time. Show more

After a white knuckled ride going up 80 towing the boat we finally made it Lewiston. Weather was sporty to say the least. Launched the boat, ice on the windshield and it was 24 degrees and blowing out of Canada up to 30 knots. We tucked up against the Canadian cliffs and did our best to maintain a drift. Fishing was tough and not super productive. My nephew put two steelies in the boat on our last day which always makes a trip worth it. I had 3 steelies in 2.5 days of fishing....a personal worst for me on that river. Show more

Shot near the gun powder last night. Slow night but ended up coming home with a 28” Northern Snakehead. Easy 10lb+ fish.

You would not think you are in Maryland on some of the stretches. I wish I could find bigger browns in this river. I know there are a few but they have PhD's in fly selection. Show more

The weather has been working against us with high NE winds, 6 straight days of sideways rain and cold. Yesterday was the first day with sun and wind shift out of the SW which is typically good for the Drum bite. We tried all the usual hotspots with fresh menhaden 55, 44, 43 and south side of Cape Point last hour up until dark and we still had all the bait we started with nothing touched it. Were back to cold north wind again today but at least there's sun... I hope to give it a try again tomorrow. Show more
