My wife and I are heading off to Western MD for our 25th aniversary. I am looking for info on fishing the Yough and the Castleman in mid June. There is a good likilyhood that we will be staying at a place just yards from the Yough!!!If anyone has any info on either of the two rivers, please let me know

Mid June (June 15th to be exact) marks the opening of the Delayed Harvest season on the Casselman. You can expect the meat fishermen to be out in force catching their dinner. Fishing could still be ok though.
I have never fished the Yock so I cannot speak to the fishing but I have heard good things. You will be a little late for the green drakes I believe.
The other good options in the area are the Savage Tailwater or the North Branch Potomac tailwater. Both will offer very good fishing this time of year. On the Savage there will be probably close to 15 varieties of flies hatching ranging from sulphurs and slate drakes to different varieties of caddis to yellow sallies and brown stones. Fishing can be tough but only because youll go through a bunch of flies before figuring out what they are eating.
Good luck.
I’d concentrate on the Savage. Extremely manageable, some of the prettiest fish in the state. If you can, fish some of the headwater tributaries. PM me, I’d be happy to share some info with you.

The browns in the North Branch are pigs though. 
heck yeah they are! NBP is way better to fish drifting, though depending on flow it can be super wadeable. Mike has a good point, you can chuck streamers any time of year at those fish and you’re almost guaranteed to get tight to some kind of monster of the deep!!!

No way, not if you are fishing the upper catch and release. The river is too small to properly drift up there.
The biggest by far come from below the upper C&R. I’m talking below the Savage confluence.

Some nice smallies in the North branch too
No way, the pig of a pigs are up in the natural propogation area getting fat on stockers by the hatchery.
