My brother and I have decided that we might try to pull off a weekend backpacking/fishing trip to VA. He lives in the greater VA Beach area and I am in Central PA so somewhere in the greater Shenandoah Valley area seems to be the area that we will converge upon. Because of the potential for crowds on the weekend, we will probably skip the national park and try to target a National Forest area. Right now, the area we are taking a look at is the St. Mary's Wilderness Area. Most of what I've read covers the hiking portion and one report states that the fishing is not as good as some other areas. However, even if the fishing is a bust, the scenery looks like it would make up for that.
So, anyone ever fished St. Mary's River and if so, how did it fish? Is it a feasible weekend backpacking/fishing destination?
If not, any other general areas that are worth exploring?
