At this years Jamboree, I was the lucky winner of a two night stay with one of the PaFlyFish site sponsors, Harman's (www.wvlogcabins.com). My wife and I stayed there Sunday and Monday nights July 15 and 16. We had a marvelous time. The cabins truly are luxurious with AC, satellite TV (flatscreen), hot tub, jacuzzi, fireplace, and full kitchen.







The North Fork of the South Branch of the Potomac flows through the property. Unfortunately this water was too warm for the trout while I was there, the remaining trout were seeking thermal refuge where a cool spring entered the creek. I was able to get the smallmouth bass to take poppers in the evenings.





I fished Seneca Creek on Monday. The water was very low and clear, but pleasantly cool. I didn't get a temp, but I'd guess low 60s. The creek is teaming with mostly small wild rainbows and a few native brookies. They were especially fond of caddis dries.









Tuesday my wife and I did some biking near the Dolly Sods wilderness before returning home.

They did have cicadas here in June. Brood I will return in 2029. I heard a few in the trees but didn't see any. The smallmouths wouldn't take my cicada imitation like they did a rubber-leg popper.

How did your wife like it? Keep her entertained?

Thinking of taking the wife and kids in the spring.

Looks like you had a great time.

Ryan,

My wife had a really nice time. She had a book she was into and that gave me opportunity to fish a little each day. The cabins are really nice, and she will not be "roughing it". Its a bit of a drive to restaurants (maybe 20 minutes), so either bring food or plan time to drive.

You stayed in the cabin I was in. Loved it!

I've fallen in love with Elk Springs but that surely looks appealing.
Neat cabins.
