Re: Fall in Western Maryland
I'm just about to put my fishing gear in the car, I'm off to the lower Taff in search of some lovely Ladies of the stream!
I've just read this thread and thoroughly enjoyed it; the beautiful photos; and I loved the sentiments of the CREED!
Autumn is a wonderful season! That is a gorgeous area you've shown us! Thanks for sharing it with us.

Re: Fall in Western Maryland
Hi Green Drake and friends.
Our group was also at your stream yesterday, But, we were not fly fishing. We were helping the Cotoctin Park (federal) staff plant trees in some rather rocky terrain. We planted 50 trees - Maples and Witch Hazels. The reason the Park planted these trees was to replace the Spruce trees which are dying or died from insect infestions along this stream. These insects are and have destroyed trees along other streams here in the Eastern US. The loss of these Spruce trees has already seen water temperatures rise in the section of the stream where we planted.
So, any of you located in this area who would like to help the Cotoctin Park staff save and improve the stream, please give them a call.
Also, since the State also controls a considerable amount of land along this stream, we will be contacting them to see where our volunteers could help improve the stream along the land they control.
Basic fact - is that we anglers need to step up and to invest some of our time in such projects to save and improve our fisheries.

Nice.
In the old days, we used to organize streamside meets where we would take a garbage bag and walk the stream cleaning it up. Aterward (or before) we would gather around the campfire or fish.
I really am enjoying the posts, sweet.
I love the picture looking down on the angler and the Joe Brooks memorial and everything...

I am impressed by the statements on the memorial for Mr. Brooks. I am actually impressed by the culture in which people build such a monument like this. In our country, game fishing has not gained so much social status that people would try to build such a monument. Just great!
The scenary of the forest and stream are awesome!
