On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV, we return to the beautiful Upper James River with Upper James River local Dalton Karnes!The James River is Virginia's largest, and begins where the Cowpasture and Jackson Rivers meet in Botetourt County, carving its way through the Allegheny and Blue Ridge Mountains before reaching Lynchburg. From there, it flows through Richmond and ultimately into the Chesapeake Bay.Today, we focus on the Non-tidal Upper James, a prime stretch for anglers from its mountain origins to the 14th Street bridge in Richmond. Known for its scenic beauty and fantastic fishing, this section is a hotspot for smallmouth bass action.

The Ghost Furnace - Episode 116 "Dr. PA - Lost Children of the Alleghenies"   The week we do something a little different. Before Mike started the Ghost Furnace, Nic and I had a Pennsylvania centric history/folklore podcast that ran from late 2015 until sometime in 2023. It had a different style and format but many of the topics either informed or would expand into elements we talk about on this show. So we wanted to start sharing them with everyone when we have a week like this, where both of us are crazy busy and don't have time to sit down and talk spooky stories with all of you. Let us know what you think about this early take of ours on the Lost Children of the Alleghenies, and if you like us digging into these archives from time to time.     If you have a story you'd like to share, you can find us on Youtube, Instagram or TheGhostFurnacePodcast@gmail.com

Point State Park stands as the crowned jewel of downtown Pittsburgh. It is a lush, 36-acre greenspace nestled at the historic confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers, where the mighty Ohio River is born.Point State Park is a focal point for community gatherings, festivals and celebrations. It provides sweeping views of the city's skyline and serves as a tranquil urban escape.The Point has become the place you bring your out of town parents to. The place you see on TV during all home games for the Pirates and Steelers. The place you see from atop of the iconic Duquesne Incline. But it hasn't always been that way. Before it was Point State Park, it was known as the Forks of the Ohio River and served as a critical military strong hold for the French, British, Native American and American militaries. Fort Prince George, Fort Duquesene and Fort Pitt were all – at one time or another – located where the state park stands.Overtime the Point developed into a thriving industrial zone, a place dedicated to supplying resources for the growing United States of America. But by the 1930s, the area had deteriorated into a commercial slum. City and state officials stepped up and completely changed the property. More than just a park, the Point is a testament to Pittsburgh's ability to reinvent itself while honoring its roots and is a powerful symbol of Pittsburgh's resilience, history and natural beauty.As the gateway to the city and the heart of its downtown, Point State Park doesn't just represent Pittsburgh—it is Pittsburgh.On this episode, I speak with Jack Lachendro.

I look forward to potentially working with them in the months to come.” - said Rep Cook In May 2021, Cook started to ask the public “Why Not Here?” As many people had the opportunity to work from anywhere during the pandemic, he questioned why people wouldn't want to live and work in one of the tightest-knit communities in the Commonwealth.

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Monday, Feb. 24, 2025  The WV One Stop Business Center has all the tools you need to start or manage your business…giant salamanders--otherwise known as hellbenders--serve as indicators of water quality…and an Eastern Panhandle craft house expands with help from the WV Small Business Development Center…on today's daily304. #1 – From WV SECRETARY OF STATE – In 2018, the WV One Stop Business Center became the first four-agency single-location business center in the nation. Now, eight years later, doing business in West Virginia has never been easier! Learn more about the WV One Stop initiative and the emphasis placed on customer service by the WV Secretary of State's Office. Watch the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Tn1aGGQcxs   #2 – From WV EXPLORER – Beneath the surface of clean-flowing streams in West Virginia, a multitude of strange creatures lurk, but none is perhaps more shocking to encounter than the hellbender. Also known as the devil dog, the mud devil, and the Allegheny alligator, its names testify to the strangeness of what turns out to be an giant aquatic salamander that is at once both repulsive and magical, depending on who you're discussing them with.   The slimy brown monsters are the largest salamanders in North America and thrive in only the most healthy streams. They are thus indicators of poor water quality, a concern in parts of West Virginia where the hellbender lives.   Due to the impact of disease and habitat loss, the animals are listed as a vulnerable species though groups like the New River Conservancy are working to reverse the condition.

Back in 2017, founder and owner Marie Bressler decided to launch a website for her machine embroidery projects, but had difficulty finding good quality supplies. That's when she began to source her own craft supplies. As she grew her online business and social media following, she decided it was time to expand to a brick-and-mortar shop. In 2023, she and her husband, Wayne Bressler, opened Boxer Craft House on South Mildred Street in Ranson. The family-owned store, recently voted No. 1 quilt shop in West Virginia, became a reality with help from the West Virginia Small Business Development Center.

Good riddance to Dry January and hello to a new episode of Good, but not the best... a Dancing Gnome podcast. We begin the show with a tribute to PileZ (RIP) before jumping straight into a Look Back / Look Ahead (pay attention Barrel Club members.)

Then, we are joined by our guest, Dr. Bob Parker from the University of Pittsburgh! Bob is the Associate Dean for Graduate Education in the Swanson School of Engineering as well as a professor of Chemical Engineering, but most importantly, teaches a course at Pitt called Science, Technology and Culture of Craft Brewing!

The conservancy is urging people in the New River watershed and beyond to comment on a proposal by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to designate it as endangered. “Not only does the presence of hellbenders indicate the rivers we rely on for drinking water are clean,” says Andrew Downs, executive director of the conservancy, “but this sometimes-strange-looking and beautiful creature is part of the identity of our region.

We'll take a look. And, legendary coach and founder of Promise Keepers, Bill McCartney, has died after a long battle with dementia. At its height in the 1990s, Promise Keepers drew millions of men to its events.

At its height in the 1990s, Promise Keepers drew millions of men to its events. Natasha: But first, a Pennsylvania pastor has been suspended by the Evangelical Presbyterian Church after he and his church tried to leave the denomination. Warren: Beverly Heights Presbyterian Church (BHPC) is a Pittsburgh-area church and has been seeking to dissolve its affiliation and exit the denomination for over a year. The church and presbytery have been at loggerheads over several issues, not the least of which is the roll of voting members entitled to participate in an exit vote. The Presbytery of the Alleghenies brought charges against Pastor Nate Devlin and the elders of  BHPC, the trial of which began in November. The judicial commission encouraged BHPC and the presbytery to attempt mediation. Natasha: But they couldn't reach a resolution so they went to trial Warren: The trial occurred on January 11, According to the presbytery's judicial commission, Devlin was “convicted by sufficient proof of the sins of contempt and immorality” and suspended from his office as teaching elder until he demonstrates repentance, including publicly acknowledging his “wrongdoing” and removing posts and other communications that “disparage” fellow teaching and ruling elders. Devlin's suspension began Tuesday (Jan 14). Natasha: What was his reaction? Warren: Devlin told MinistryWatch. “It is unprecedented that a presbytery would try a pastor and the entire church session,” He said he felt compelled to see the trial through and “bear witness to the truth.” In their closing statement at the trial, Devlin and the BHPC session said, “[W]e have consistently acted in good faith, driven by a deep love for our church, and we are not guilty of the charges against us.” Natasha: Next, televangelists are pausing their programs on Daystar.

In this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the hosts kick off the new year with personal updates, including Cam's family bouncing back from illness and the rare sight of winter snowfall in Texas. A wave of nostalgia follows as they reminisce about childhood favorites like Jolt cola and giant Pixie Stix. After the casual banter, the episode takes a mysterious turn. The hosts delve into eerie encounters, beginning with the enigmatic Tree People of the Shenandoah Valley. This historically rich region, stretching 140 miles through northern Virginia, is nestled between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Alleghenies. Once the edge of the American frontier and later a pivotal Civil War battleground, the Shenandoah Valley's past echoes through its preserved landmarks, unique architecture, and vibrant communities. The intrigue doesn't stop there. The episode also uncovers chilling stories, including a Not Deer sighting in Chicago, a Skinwalker encounter in Arizona, a possible botched alien abduction, a haunted house built on protected faerie land, and the unsettling discovery of a green metal door standing alone in the middle of the woods. Was it merely an abandoned structure, or could it have been a portal to another dimension? All of this and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!

Explore this profound question as we unravel the timeless journey of freedom, drawing inspiration from Theodore Parker's eloquent words.

Themes of justice, rights, and divine law are woven together, highlighting the essential duties of states to avert suffering. With a reflective lens, we urge vigilance and fidelity to conscience, calling on each citizen to honor the sacrifices of those who came before.

Vote Maximizer - Where the most voters have the most influence A Family Life Newsmaker Interview - 10/30/2024 The developer of a web-based tool to evaluate action plans based on political polls and populations says control of Congress runs through Pennsylvania and New York again this year: Dr. Sam Wang and his team created the "Vote Maximizer" website which shows statewide and national trends to measure how and where individuals and groups have the largest influence on government through their votes and other political activities. VoteMaximizer.org shows several Pennsylvania counties where an individual voter has the most influence on their state government: Centre, Erie, Mercer, Luzerne, Lackawanna and Allegheny. The biggest influence this year for New York voters is on some Congressional seats from Syracuse and Utica toward New York City, including Districts 19 and 22.     Sam Wang is an Ivy League professor, as well as the founding director of the Electoral Innovation Lab. Princeton University's Neuroscience Lab is named after him. Their website is VoteMaximizer.org.  An introductory video is here. He has an interest in improving the government through the ways voting districts are mapped. He gave a TED Talk this fall on "Using Math to Repair Democracy".   www.familylife.org/newspodcasts

Katie Meyer and Stephen Caruso of Spotlight PA joined The Spark's journalist roundtable for a segment on Pennsylvania House and Senate Elections. Democrats' hold one seat margin in the House, while Republicans control the Senate by six seats. "Right now, the Senate is controlled by Republicans and the House is controlled by Democrats by just one vote. So, I mean, both of them are in play. Republicans have held the Senate for a very long time. So that is, I think, less likely. But the House could really go either way. And there are a number of races that Stephen in particular has been sort of laser focused on as the most important ones that could flip control. So it's very important. Right now, Pennsylvania's the only divided legislature in the country, I think, still. And we have a Democratic governor. So that makes it difficult for them to really do anything. And so this is going to be it's going to have a huge impact on Pennsylvanians, "Said Meyer. Caruso shared which districts are competitive in this years senate elections. "Democrats have been minority for a while, almost minus a small time in the 90s, basically since the 80s that they had they had a literally like a six month majority or so. So Republicans have controlled the chamber. And to flip it where Democrats have to win in Erie, a seat in Allegheny and a seat in central Pennsylvania and around Harrisburg. And they'd also have to hold one seat in Allegheny County, and that would just tie the chamber. That would basically give them a majority without getting in the legislative walker. But because of that, like, those are the main races. And I think it's just a hard path for Democrats to try and tie the chamber and get some control, "said Caruso.    Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

No one knows exactly how it got its name; no one is sure when the first burial there took place or why it has since been abandoned; there is no explanation for the strange lights that are often seen there, or the ghostly lady, or the phantom horse and rider. (Bachelor's Grove Cemetery) *** A man is found in a graveyard with a bullet to his skull, barely alive. He died later – but what exactly happened to him is a bit of a mystery. Our guess though is that it had something to do with him being a grave robber. (A Grave Robber's Fate) *** Forensics has come a long way over the years, making it harder and harder for criminals to get away with crimes – particularly brutal crimes where DNA is usually left behind because of a struggle or physical assault. But despite technological advancements, there are still those cases that remain unsolved – and we'll look at a few murders of women whose cases still can't be closed. (Unsolved Female Murders) *** How's the saying go… “hell hath no fury like a woman scorned?” That's good advice for the living – but probably even more apropos when dealing with female ghosts! (Famous Female Phantoms) *** Imagine you're in a small town and suddenly you begin seeing people around you starting to change into beastly creatures. They begin attacking those around them, ripping them apart, eating like wild animals. Then suddenly you begin the transformation yourself… you are becoming a werewolf. But you were never bitten by a monster, nor were the townsfolk. How could this be happening? This actually happened in a small town in France… and one of the theories as to how it happened will not only surprise you, but have you wondering if it will happen to you someday.

On today's show is Missy Raines, one of the great bluegrass bassists out there, not to mention a fabulous singer and songwriter. Bluegrass bass playing is a funny thing - on the surface it seems simple. But there's a whole other level to it, and when you hear someone like Junior Huskey do it, or Mike Bub, or Dennis Crouch, or Missy Raines, they all play at that level. There's a way the really good players place their notes, there's the tone, and it all comes down to the bed that the bass players lay for the other players in the band to live in. And that's the hard part. Once you get a chance to play with someone of that calibre it becomes much clearer what great bassist brings to the table, and Missy is one of the best. She's been releasing albums under her own name since 1998, and her latest recording just came out a couple months ago - it's called “Highlander” and it's a killer record that features her band Allegheny as well as guests like Kathy Mattea, Michael Cleveland, Darol Anger, and Rob Ickes. Missy is from West Virginia, and she was lucky enough to grow up in an area that had a strong bluegrass scene that she got to experience first hand. She's lived in Nashville for a long time now, and is on the road alot these days. She's won multiple IBMA awards for Bass Player of the Year, and has performed with legends like Mac Wiseman, Peter Rowan and Josh Graves. Aside from her accomplishments in the bluegrass world, Missy swerved over into more experimental territory a few years back and had a band going called The New Hip, who made a couple of incredible records well worth checking out as well that feature her songwriting in a less traditional context. But these days she's pretty focussed on traditional bluegrass and has one of the best bands on the scene, so make sure you go see them if they come through your area.

This week I do a deep dive into the history of baseball in the Steel City. I will give you the genesis backstory on a major league team that has been around since 1882. When a rag-tag group of guys from the Burgh, who called themselves the Alleghenies, would play the then young sport of baseball, after working all day in the mills. I will discuss the rich Negro League heritage of the city, where two of the most consequential Negro League teams, the Pittsburgh Crawfords and the Homestead Grays called home. And I dig into the history and construction of Three Rivers Stadium and the Buccos current baseball cathedral, PNC Park. #PittsburghPirates #RobertoClemente #HonusWagner #BillMazeroski #PittsburghCrawfords #HomesteadGrays #PNCPark #ThreeTiversStadium #ExpositionPark #Alleghenies #WillieStargell #ForbesField

Show Notes:  https://wetflyswing.com/642  Presented By: Togens Fly Shop, TroutRoutes, Stonefly Nets, Drifthook Fly Fishing Sponsors: https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors    Today we'll have an exciting conversation with Nick Secrist on spring creek fishing! Nick shares practical strategies and techniques, including the dry dropper method and tips for identifying when fish are ready to eat. He also recommends some fly selection, rod preferences, and nymphing setups. Additionally, we explore the Mossy Creek Fly Shop, its services, and community initiatives. Nick's passion for fishing promises to make this episode an invaluable resource for anyone looking to enhance their fishing skills. Dive in and join us on this journey through the spring creeks of Virginia! Episode Chapters with Nick Secrist on Spring Creek Fishing 1:36 - Nick shares his background in fishing, noting that he comes from a "fishy" family. He recalls an early photo of his dad fishing with him shortly after he was born and describes his family's fishing adventures, particularly offshore fishing. 4:44 - Nick briefly talks about the current fishing state. They are experiencing a drought similar to the one from the previous year, which is affecting the water levels and temperatures. Despite these challenges, the fishing for smallmouth bass, particularly on the South Fork of the Shenandoah River, is exceptional. 7:14 - Nick explains that Mossy Creek is unique due to its significant spring influence, cold water, and consistent fishing conditions throughout the year. He also mentions similar streams like Beaver Creek and Spring Run, which also have spring influences but may not be as consistently fishable as Mossy Creek. 8:30 - The conversation then shifts to smallmouth bass fishing. Nick outlines the peak smallmouth fishing season, which starts in late April and runs through September, with June, July, and August being the most consistent months for good fishing conditions. 11:25 - We discuss tips for spring creek fishing, specifically focusing on the technical aspects and nuances of fishing in Mossy Creek. Nick emphasizes that fishing in such environments can be challenging due to the unique micro drifts and currents caused by weed beds. He advises anglers to pay close attention to small channels and the drift of their lines, as simply casting into the middle of the creek is often ineffective. 13:36 - Nick talks about the dry dropper technique, especially during the spring and summer months. He explains that even if fish are not actively rising, there's still a good chance they will come up to take the dry fly. The dry dropper lands more naturally on the water and provides an opportunity for fish to strike. This technique is preferred over indicators in certain conditions, offering subtlety and a higher chance of success. 14:47 - He talks about the unique experience of fishing in spring creeks, particularly emphasizing the clear waters that allow anglers to see the fish. He also explains that while there are days with abundant catches, many people go to spring creeks for the challenge and satisfaction of sight fishing and having meaningful encounters with individual fish. 18:38 - Nick discusses how to identify when a fish is ready to eat. He explains that observing the fish's behavior in the water is key. Fish that are stationary at the bottom with closed mouths are likely not feeding, whereas fish that are more active, darting around and opening their mouths, are more likely to be in a feeding pattern. He also shares tips on fishing techniques, particularly for Mossy Creek. He suggests that people often fish with streamers too slowly and nymphs too quickly. When streamer fishing, he advises making a few casts and then moving to find fish that are more willing to eat. Conversely, nymph fishing requires patience and precision due to the complexity of the creek's currents and depths. Persistence and varied techniques are necessary to catch fish with nymphs. 23:06 - He shares the patterns they use in fishing the Mossy Creek. He recommends using flies of different weights, sizes, and colors. 27:46 - Nick highlights the variety of streams available in their area, many of which are full of brook trout, thanks to the Blue Ridge and Allegheny mountain ranges. He also mentions the abundance of options within an hour's drive, including both naturally occurring and stocked streams. 30:09 - We delve into the Mossy Creek Fly Shop owned by twin brothers, Brian and Colby. Nick explains that the shop offers both smallmouth and trout fishing trips. Smallmouth fishing is conducted via floating trips on rafts, covering five to ten miles of river depending on the route. These rafts provide flexibility, especially in areas with big bedrock or without boat ramps. Trout fishing, on the other hand, is done through walk-and-wade trips, suitable for the specific river conditions they encounter. 32:53 - Smallmouth fishing generally offers higher catch rates than trout fishing, even on less productive days. Nick elaborates that the Shenandoah River has a robust smallmouth population, making it possible to catch many fish, including smaller ones, with ease. 35:02 - Nick mentions that as temperatures drop in the fall, they pivot back to trout fishing due to the cooler temperatures and increased moisture, which makes the conditions favorable for trout. During the fall and winter, they engage in musky fishing, particularly in the South Fork and the James River. 38:26 - He shares that while they manage private stretches for guided trips, there is also a four-mile public section available, thanks to cooperative agreements with local landowners. He shares his experience of learning to fish in these waters and emphasizes the abundance of fishing options in the area. 44:11 - We dig into some key strategies for spring creek fishing. Nick suggests the importance of having a variety of flies to increase the chances of success. He also highlights the significance of achieving the right drift and being patient, as it can sometimes take considerable time to get the presentation just right. Nick notes that some fishing spots may require extended efforts, especially if they're complex, and advises anglers not to rush through but rather to adjust and refine their techniques as needed. 45:43 - Nick further elaborates on fly selection, mentioning specific types of flies suitable for the season and conditions. For instance, he recommends using dense flies for subsurface fishing and instant streamers. For dry fly fishing, he points out that a trico hatch is effective during early mornings throughout the summer. Additionally, he suggests using ants, beetles, hoppers, or PMX flies for blind fishing, as they have a larger profile and float well, making them attractive to opportunistic fish. 46:30 - He also emphasizes the importance of using longer rods, preferably eight and a half to nine feet. Longer rods help with mending and controlling the line over moss beds. Additionally, Nick advises using good floating lines and split shots for optimal nymph depth. He also mentions the importance of having a large net to accommodate the size of the fish one hopes to catch. 48:20 - Nick shares his typical nymphing setup, which involves using a 9ft 5wt rod and a nine-foot knotless tapered leader. He adjusts the tippet size based on the fishing conditions. 50:21 - He talks about his experience with fly tying, noting that his engagement with the hobby fluctuates. He uses a Renzetti Traveler vise, which he praises for its longevity and reliability, a sentiment echoed by Brian and Colby, who still use their vices bought at age 15. We had Lily Renzetti on the podcast in episode 486. 52:53 - We talk about vices and hobbies. Nick admits to having a coffee problem but reveals that his real obsession is tarpon fishing. He describes how he indulges this passion by reading books, listening to podcasts, and practicing his fishing techniques at home. He also goes on to share his upcoming travel plans centered around fishing. 55:23 - We talk about the Mossy Creek Mobile Fly Shop. The truck, resembling a retired UPS vehicle, has been fully outfitted with fly fishing gear, including spooling machines, lines, reels, rods, and flies. It features a distinctive Derek DeYoung trout wrap on the ceiling. Through the mobile fly shop, they aim to thank loyal customers and attract new ones by visiting various breweries across the state. 56:49 - Additionally, the Mossy Creek team collaborates with local Trout Unlimited chapters, Project Healing Waters, and other clubs to host events like fly tying competitions, further fostering community involvement. Dates and locations for the tour are available on their website. 58:31 - We talk a bit about the history of Virginia. Nick shares that he has been reading about historical figures like Daniel Boone and reflects on the historical significance of the local streams and landscapes. He also mentions that the fly shop was originally constructed in 1832, retaining much of its original wood, which adds to its historical charm. The shop is located in Harrisonburg, just a few blocks from the downtown area, making it a convenient and historically rich location for visitors. Show Notes:  https://wetflyswing.com/642

Mike Radomski's  journey started with Phelps Mountain, and he soon found himself captivated by the physical challenge and beauty of the mountains. Despite initially underestimating the demands of hiking, Mike adapted his training and skills, eventually completing both the regular and Winter 46er challenges. This transformation from an athlete to a dedicated hiker provided him with fulfillment through the physical and mental challenges of hiking. Facing career burnout and wanting to spend more time with his sons, Mike semi-retired and began documenting his outdoor adventures on YouTube. His involvement in the Allegheny 18 challenge led him to create a community around it, eventually launching the Western New York Hiking Challenge. This self-driven challenge covers multiple trails across the region and has grown significantly, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. It now boasts 3,500 participants and a supportive Facebook community of 65,000 members. Over five years, the challenge has raised over $330,000 for local environmental causes and has helped many individuals gain confidence, lose weight, and manage anxiety and depression. The community has become a platform for people to stay active, reconnect with family, and cope with various life challenges. Mike continues to expand his initiatives, offering skills classes, guided hikes, and additional challenges like winter and birding challenges. His emphasis on preparedness and personal connections has inspired many to pursue outdoor adventures and adopt active lifestyles. Despite struggling to scale his activities due to personal involvement, Mike aims to expand regionally and considers using video content for broader impact. His recent 23-day Grand Canyon rafting trip highlights his love for long-term immersion in nature.

In 1782 the combined forces of the British Army, its Indian allies, and Canadian Rangers, totaling over 500 men, on orders to wipe out all the colonists east of the Alleghenies between Quebec and Kentucky, executed a series of attacks on colonial settlements in Kentuicky, committing mass murder, depredations, and kidnapping of the men, women, and children of two entire settlements, Ruddle's station and Martin's Station. Their next target was Bryan;'s Station. The heroism of the men, and especially the women of that settlement prompted the DAR to erect a memorial on the site of that settlement's fort in 1896 to honor all who fought there against overwhelming odds.
