Last Night on the Shenandoah River

On Friday 09/14/2012 I spent our last night on the Shenandoah River fishing for smallies.  I got out a little earlier than I had been doing and I was happy about that.   I got one but just as I was lifting him out of the water, he got off so no photos.  I managed to land 2 fall fish and 12 long ears on the Road Kill in olive and black.  I stopped before it was even dark out.  It was just one of those times when I knew I was done and I was OK with that.  It isn't like I won't be back or I didn't have fun.  I knew it was time to go and I did.  This never was supposed to be a fishing vacation.  This was supposed to be time spent with the family and when possible I could fish.  Melissa was kind enough to make sure I was able to fish every day.  I spent five days on the Shenandoah and one day at Mossy Creek.  While the times I was at each weren't the best, at least I got to fish my whole vacation and I was happy about that.  Speaking of times, most of my time on the water, I had the whole place to myself.  I am guessing it was because of how late in the year it was but whatever the reason, it was awesome.  I enjoyed it.  So ends our week long stay in the Shenandoah Valley.

Whole parking lot to myself 


Got to have coffee before you go 

Got to have some Whiskey after you come home!
