finding a west virginia fly fisherman

[Gandy Dancer]

Caddis , In some respects you are correct ,I have fished it since around 1959 or so, in another, a "Gandy Dancer" was a name given to section gang laborer on the railroad. I am a native Randolph county guy, who now lives in Preston County.

rk,
I live in Canton, Ohio, but love to visit Cabela's in Wheeling. Next time I head down I'll post here before & maybe we can get a bunch of us together for a Cabela's get together like we have in Dundee, Michigan at the Cabela's there.

Hello, I tried to fly fish in WV when I visited there about 4 years ago, I was based at Morgantown, and was told by the tourist office that the better fishing was in Maryland, I fished the Snake River there and caught a few, then a few days later visited a fishing/shooting day at Stonewall Jackson National Park where I got some great advice on local waters, had some great sport and must thank the locals in Morgantown for their hospitality, fantastic folk.

I am out of Moundsville do most of my fishing up in Wheeling.

Here's your answer...
1) Click on "community", then "members list"
2) Just under the page numbers, click on "search members", then "advanced search"
3) Go to "location"....type in location, scroll down & hit "search now".
example: "west virginia" shows only you, but "wv" shows 5 other FAOLers in West Virginia. It's all what one puts in their profile.
Hope this helps.

OMG! I just noticed this is an old post from 2007!
Oh well, maybe someone can use the information I posted.

It had me fooled too. I'd be glad to meet with any interested parties at Cabelas in Wheeling. It's only about a 2 hour drive from where I lived in central, PA. I'd love to learn some place to fish in West Virginia. I fished the Smoke Hole years ago.

Go to Harrisonburg, Va. Find Route 33 out of town west. Take it. As you come down North Mountain, you will come to Pendleton, W, Va. You will be entering from the north. Continue south thru town and start looking to your left. You'll see a dam over the Potomac. There'll be fishermen on it. Go down there and ask them.
