Scroll down a few posts to learn about the cabin, but …This time of the year it is all about The River. The River is beautifully pleasing to all the senses. The time spent at the cabin was fabulous and rejuvenating, but the Williams River was in its glory and so captivating. The heavy snows rendered it impossible for WV DNR to stock the river as planned in January, February, and March, but they have launched a strong initiative to fill the Williams River with beautiful trout including the Golden Rainbow that was discovered, developed, and eventually stocked in the cold clean rivers and streams of West Virginia.

While we were on the river late in the afternoon on Saturday the first insects began to emerge from the water giving the fly fishing men and women something to work with to match the hatch. Though there were many people on the river fishing with natural baits and spinners there were those who pursued the trout with fly rods and flies. The Williams River is perfectly suited for fly fishing.
Virtually the full length of the Williams River is accessible by a recently paved road paralleling on one side of the river and then the other. Though the paved portion of the road is thin, those using the area are very courteous and safe while passing each other.
