Show Notes
Rob has proclaimed 2026 as the year of the five weight fly rod. You'll need to wait a bit longer for a comprehensive explanation of his reasoning. In the meantime, tune in as Rob heads back to Mossy Creek to test out his new Hardy Marksman 5 weight setup. He has been preoccupied with thoughts about the restored section of the upper part of the stream and strategies for using weighted streamers. With winter settling in, the once vibrant wildflowers and overgrown banks have withered away, making it easier to walk and cast. Rob is ready to fish all day Monday, camp out in his car, and return for another session on Tuesday morning to pursue his goal. Listen as Rob shares insights about the stream and its winter conditions, the fish lurking in the structure, and the way the stream weaves through the agricultural landscape.
The podcast ends with Rob at Dam 4 on the Potomac. Three guys had out on kayaks without proper safety gear. Those on shore watch at the kayakers nearly die.
