3/27/20085 stars!
I arrived at about 3:30 and fished until dark, about 7:00.  Caught about 15 fish, none of them small:  a brookie, a 'bow, and a brown.  They were rising like crazy and eating emergers (rising but no bubbles).  Taking my Adams flies on the surface! Great blue olive (size 14) hatch at dusk.  
 
A beaver had made a great dam between the two parking areas on the river, which made a lot of slow and deep water which the fish were loving.  The beaver swam by me quite close a couple of times which was kind of freaky. 
Parachute Adams - nothing else worked.

Took a short after work trip to the Mitchell today.  Started off really slow.  Barely saw any fish let alone hook them.  Finally started getting some action on Light Cahills at about dusk.  Caught a nice Rainbow and few small brookies and bows.

On Sunday the water was low and slow and crystal clear. I didn't see much activity. Eventually I found a small run that had trout feeding top water and caught 6.

Traveled up to the Va State Line on HAtchers Chapel. Water was very low and saw no trout. Fished about 1000' downstream from bridge.
Drove over to the access at Joyce Mill Rd. and property owner had strung up a cable across the dirt road down to Cougar Falls. Not sure if the State is aware of this.
Drove to Jessups Mill, water very low and didn't go above the dam. Fished about 200' below the bridge.
Tried dries with droppers, caught several nice sized chubs on beadheads under the bridge at Jessups Mill.

Stocking for November seemed to be light.  When I found a few fish in a pool, I was able to get one to bite on midge pattern and another on a wooly bugger with a pink egg pattern about a foot behind.  Ran out of time after the second fish (felt like a nice one, but lost it after a minute or so).
