Nicely done and well told !!

We were really in need of an actual TR around here.

Thanks Anthony.

No problem...

I can't believe with all the fishermen around this area that there isn't
a
regular report here as well.

Anthony,
There's a few of us that fish Morgan run but in the summer the water
gets pretty warm (well, maybe not wet wading warm!) but to the point
that I think the trout get pretty stressed so I lay off them in the
summer. If it's trout I want then I hit the Gunpowder or just go smallie
fishing. Look forward to seeing you on MR in Oct though as it can be
pretty darn good then.

Yeah, that's why i've been staying away from the Patuxent lately...Was told
by more than one of the fishermen around here that it gets warmer than the
fish can deal with during the middle of the summer and they get stressed and
won't bite on anything at all. I have been wanting to check out some other
streams but work has been taking up any time I could have had to go check
out other places. I haven't been to Gunpowder, Owens or Big Hunting Creek
yet and others farther away. I will check them out before it gets too cold.
Come hell or high water!

The nice thing about the Gunpowder is (1) it's a tailwater and (2) it's
got a great green buffer due to being surrounded by the park so "Hell
and HIgh water" storms we get this time of year very rarely make it
unfishable. A rarity among our mid-atlantic streams. The temp and flow
are managed by the state in cooperation with a TU plan so it's really a
gem among 8 million people.
