Re: [VFB] Between
Thanks Mike. You and I and maybe some in SoCal don't have the bad weather, so we can feel for those suffering. I just hope everyone stays safe. That is an interesting article. Sent from my iPad Thank You, Alan Di Somma Phoenix, AZ. Some mistakes are just too much fun to make only once.

On Jan 3, 2014, at 12:31 PM, Mike Barrett jmbarr...@msn.com wrote: I sent the following by direct email to Hendry. By the way, the Beaverkill Valley Inn has 1 mile of private water catch and release water on the upper Beaverkill just like 2 miles north of Lew Beach, NY. The 'wall pool' is like no more than 300 feet away where I have caught 22 inch rainbows at the head of the pool many times because the BVI is catch and release. This pool is quite long. There are three great pools to fish and twice as many riffles also. There is the bend pool further south, may 800 feet away. If you are lucky enough to know someone from the Beaverkill Trout Club a couple of miles south of the BVI, they have 6 miles of private water. You would like to fish within walking distance of the motel/Bed Breakfast and be in NIRVANA? Well this is it!!! it sounds like you want to make a summer trip. The water will be cool enough to hold the fish even through August and warm enough to wet wade. Bing Maps the Birds Eye view of the address and you will get an idea of their property. The nice thing about the BVI, is that you must cross the Barnhart Road bridge to get to their property. Their property is separated from the Beaverkill Valley Road by the river. From the BVI you can get to the East Branch of the Delaware, which has many access points for wade fishing. In August it will still be ice cold from water releases early in the morning, 40 degree range from the bottom of the Pepacton Reservoir Dam in Downsville NY. It is like natures own A/C on a 95 degree August day. They have an indoor swimming pool, indoor basketball court and a self serve ice cream bar. Breakfast is part of your room charge. Last year weekdays were $167/ night and Sunday is a weekday. They serve lunch and dinner, if need be at an additional price. Full course dinners were $50/person with soup, salad, entre and desert. Sometimes with dinner, they have a cocktail hour with hors d'œuvres. It just depends on how many people will be at dinner. They have a nice little bar with good spirits a plenty, fine wine and many craft beers. Tipping is not permitted. If they are not serving dinner, you are allowed to eat at the homeowners association club bar in Lew Beach. There is a wonderful wraparound porch for sitting and reading. There are many trails for hiking but it is black bear country so please bring bear mace and/or fog horns. Just Google either and make your choice. I always carry bear mace, a small horn and one 5 inch bowie knife as a last resort. From the BVI, you can go fish the covered bridge on the upper Beaverkill NY state park area a few miles away. There is a deep pool there. You can go north on route 206 out of Roscoe and before you cross the Beaverkill River Bridge, there is a torn off on your left to the Beaverkill River. Back down 206 towards Roscoe, there is another access point. And of Course there is the famous Junction Pool (the Beaverkill and Willowemoc meet to form the lower Beaverkill. There is a cute little creek with two turn offs for fishing, Mongaup Creek. It is up Mongaup Road which is off of DeBruce Road out of Livingston Manor. Mongaup is a tributary to the Upper Willowemoc, upstream from Livingston Manor. The turnoff to the pool, which I always fish, is the one with the v formed plank dam, the second one after driving up on Mongaup Road. Do not step out onto the dam. It is slick as goat shit. Plus I am not sure that it would support any weight because of its age. A vist to the hatchery on Mongaup creek is worthwhile. It is fed by 1,500 gallons daily of spring water, which just emptys into the lower Mongaup Creek where the plank dam is, insuring water even during a hot dry summer month. Just plop a size 16 royal wullf to the far side and let the back wash drift it into the foam and pretty little 14 inch rainbows will bolt from the depth underneath the foam and take your presentation. Mongaup Creek houses the Mongaup Creek NY State Hatchery further on up the road so Google map it and you will find the road to the aforementioned fishing spot. Depending on the time of year, which you may go, you will have to check local info as to local craft fairs etc. The only fly shop, to which I go, is the Catskills Fly Shop. Dennis, the owner, is very friendly but do not be put off by his sarcasm, if he displays any. It is so much a part of his charm. He will give you all the help, which you need, to choose the right flies etc. He will chit chat with you endlessly
