Trout Fishing Map Book for the North Branch of the Potomac
Bass - Jennings Randolph Lake (MD) Big water... far to big for the canoe to handle.
Trout Hike - North Branch Potomac (MD - Wallman Middle) The Wallman Middle access point requires 4 wheel drive to reach the water.
North Branch Potomac (MD - Barnum Southern C&R) You cannot have a bad day on the North Branch
Trout Hike - NB Potomac (MD - Kitzmiller Downstream) I walked 2.5 miles downstream from Kitzmiller to see what this section of the North Branch had to offer
Trout Hike - North Branch Potomac (MD - Barnum Put and Take) The Barnum Put and Take Section is right next to the road with no tackle restrictions offering starkly beautiful trout water
Trout Hike - North Branch Potomac (MD - Bloomington) Low water made this a non-starter at the end of last year. Tough walk to get in or out.
Trout Hike - North Branch (Barnum - Lower C&R) I finally got to Barnum. The drive was worth it.
Trout Hike - North Branch (Bayard) Got Water?
Trout Hike - North Branch (Wallman) A cold, cold day on the North Branch with nothing to show for it.
Trout Hike - North Branch (Lostland Run) HOLY Mackeral! Trains actually use the track!
Trout Hike - North Branch (Gormania) Gormania is a nice looking place - broad river, reasonable current and nice depth.
Trout Hike - North Branch Potomac (Laurel Run) Laurel Run appears to be a popular entrance to the North Branch - something the amount of trash here confirms. Not a great place...
Trout Hike - North Branch Potomac (Wallman South) The North Branch gets better the farther up you go. The southern (and main) Wallman entrance is a gateway to a nice section of the river
Trout Hike - North Branch Potomac (Wallman North) The northern Wallman entrance is your gateway to a scenic stretch of the North Branch of the Potomac - deep pools and fast runs.
Trout Recon - North Branch Potomac (Gormania) Recon was promising. This section is worth a return visit to fish
Trout Hike - NB Potomac Mile 1 - 2.5 (Lostland) Another great day on the NB/Potomac - even had bass action!
Trout Hike - NB Potomac Mile 0 to 1 (Lostland) Pleasant day in a great place - wide open, plenty of water
