3/8/12: Scott and I fished the Rapidan starting at the junction pool and
heading down the fire road to the ford. It was very windy and the wind
disturbed the surface. Fishing below the ford was not productive. We
started catching fish in the small pools upstream of the ford. This is
some of the nicest trout water I have ever seen. After we left the
junction pool we headed upstream/up the road till we came to Camp
Rapidan. We fished here as well. The flow was about 1/2 the flow at
the junction pool. Scott caught four beauties here. I lost my dropper
and didn't catch any. We think that the road still had a mile to go
before the gate downstream from Camp Hoover (we'll tackle this stretch
later). All and all it was a great day. I caught 6 and Scott probably
caught 18! I needed to get 3wt line as the level 4 I had on there
killed my presentation.
