Mossy Creek Fly Fishing

Welcome to Mossy Creek Fly Fishing We're Brian & Colby Trow, and we operate Mossy Creek Fly Fishing in Harrisonburg, Virginia. From the fly shop we offer a guide service on local waters. This includes wade trips for trout in the mountains, spring creeks, big freestone streams, and private water, or float trips on the James River or Shenandoah River for smallmouth bass. Beginner through expert fly fishing classes are available through our Orvis Endorsed Fly Fishing School here in Harrisonburg, or at Wintergreen Resort. We host fly tying clinics throughout the winter season, but private fly tying classes are available throughout the year. We are only minutes away from spring creek brown trout on the famous Mossy Creek. We are also surrounded by freestone mountain streams in the George Washington National Forest and Shenandoah National Park. Private water is available at Susie Q Farm, River Valley Farm, private stretches of Mossy Creek, or Stoney Creek at Wintergreen Resort. Whether you are looking for big browns, rainbows, or brook trout, our expert staff and guides will help you plan a trip to remember. The Shenandoah Valley was recently named one of the top 10 vacation spots in the country by Money Magazine. It's a great place for fly fishing, and we're right in the middle of it all. Dry fly fishing begins early on the mountain freestone streams of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Wild brook trout flourish in these creeks, and they are often fishing well by late-March. The Central Shenandoah Valley holds a number of spring creeks including Mossy Creek, Beaver Creek, and Smith Creek. An abundance of aquatic insects thrive in these cold, limestone-rich waters. The hatches are reliable and the browns and rainbows grow large. By April we are also on the Shenandoah and James Rivers floating for smallmouth bass, carp, and musky. Fishing is excellent through the summer months and into October.
