LITTLE SUSITNA RIVER FLY FISHING

WWW.DRIFTINGONTHEFLY.COM

Little Susitna river fly fishing can be very productive.  We have hooked many king salmon, silver salmon, and rainbow trout on the fly in this system.  Here is a picture of a king salmon hooked up on the fly rod.  This fish took a purple articulated leech on the swing.  Thanks to John Colmen and Jeff Murray for making the 2008 little Susitna trip a success.  John and Jeff moved the camp boat, set up camp and cooked every day.  Enjoying a great trip and just having them in camp added that much more to a great experience.  You can catch up with these guys deep in the Shenandoah national park fishing for spooky brook trout or on the Shenandoah rivers fly casting for small mouth bass.  If you would enjoy this or if it is close to your neck of the woods look them up at www.murraysflyshop.com.

Thanks again guys and good fishing, Scott Sager Drifting On The Fly, LLC

Shenandoah smallmouth bass fishing

copy-of-hunting-055.jpgcopy-of-hunting-050.jpg Shenandoah smallmouth bass fishing can be very good in the spring.  The days are getting longer and it seems that you can get a lot more done.  Two  weeks ago I visited my home town of Strasburg, VA for my grandparents 65th wedding anniversary!  It was a very nice but a short visit.  I did get a chance to fish for only a few  hours with the folks at Murrays fly shop (www.murraysflyshop.com).  We fished the north fork of the Shenandoah river throwing leaches with a slow retrieve.  I managed to land a 10-12″ smallmouth and John  landed a solid 12″ fish.  It was nice to get out and see that the fish were willing to play. copy-of-hunting-052.jpg Thanks and there will be more posts this week and a few pictures.
