Gents,

Sorry, haven't been around much.  A little fly fishing in WV here and there, but mostly salt water fishing.  I said fishing, not catching  :o
Anyways, I'd planned on striper fishing sunday.  Not going to happen with 5-6' seas forcast in the lower bay. 
So, I'm grabbing the 3 wt and heading west.  Looking for some suggestions.  Probably stop by the Passage, but willing to hit anything within about a 2 hour drive from DC.
Peace,

Hit some MD streams.

North Branch of the Patomic, or the Gunpowder. The NBP is probably a little further than 2 hours, but there is a C and R section (Barnum, WV, Luke MD), and there are some really nice fish in there. Its a tailwater, but the flows for the next 3 days are at around 150, which is perfect for wading. A MD or WV license will work, as they both stock the river since it follows the state lines.

The Gunpowder is probably closer to you, but I have never fished. Its a tailwater too, with some nice browns.
