Spent about an hour and a half on Big Hunting Creek outside of Thurmont, Maryland Sunday evening. This creek is actually a small tailwater running through a state and national park in Maryland about half way between Frederick and Gettysburg. It is also a stones throw from the Presidential retreat at Camp David.

While nothing was rising regularly and the water was extremely skinny, the browns were hungry for size 14 stimulators and elk hair caddis. I only hooked up on about one out of every 4 or 5 rises, but still managed to land enough fish to have a blast.

BHC is a great destination if you only have a couple of hours to fish.
