About Savage River
As a river in Maryland, United States, Savage River fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at Savage River pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques
- For Brown trout
When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.
- For Rainbow trout
Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.
- For Brook trout
Fish upstream, casting into pools and runs, allowing your bait or lure to drift naturally with the current for best results.
