CURRENT REPORT BASS...Updated September 7, 2010: Fishing is GREAT using either subsurface or surface lures. Bass and other species are mainly taking lures in the evening or early mornings. The waters are in fine shape, clear, refreshing and easy to wade. Use subsurface lures in the fast water and sunny, hot days.  Switch to surface lures in the shaded, slow areas late afternoon to dark. We wet-wade mainly in late-afternoon ending just before dark. To book an outing for Bass, please click HERE.

CURRENT TROUT REPORT...Updated September 7, 2010:   There is little to no Trout fishing during the hot, humid and dry summer.  We are currently booking Smallmouth Bass June-September. 

Put-n-Take Stocked Trout Waters: No more stockings until late-September or early October..  Trout fishing in these waters is nonexistent until late-September or early October.

Native, Special Regulation, Wild and Fly Fishing Only Waters:  Presently spring creeks are flowing at 20% stream-channel coverage and spring influenced at 60%.  Water temperatures are 69 degrees and may hit or exceed 70 by the first of August. Fishing in these waters is over until late-September or early October.  Fly anglers have switched over to warm water species such as Smallmouth Bass, Rock Bass and Redbreast Sunfish. 

Special Regulation Specific: Jackson River (Bath County), Buffalo Creek (Rockbridge County), Smith Creek (Clifton Forge):  Trout fishing in these waters is very slim for the summer because of low water levels, high water temperatures plus the heat and humidity. Most anglers are directing their efforts to warm water fish such as Smallmouth Bass. For background information on Mossy Creek, click HERE.
