Looking to go fishing tomorrow. Would love to go to the Pamunkey river but I think all the recent heavy rains has it messed up.
Any suggestions? Also thought about Fort Pickett but concerned that it will be real muddy. Thinking of Sandy River Resivoir, haven't been there in a while. Never have been to LCR or Western Branch or Diaisons?9 bad speller).
Kind of a long trip to Buggs. Any ideas or is anyone else getting out to fish on Wednesday?
Thanks,
Roy
That long trip could be worth it :D;):D Good luck where ever you decide to go. I wish that I could go tomorrow but I probably won't be able to go again until Friday!Quote:

Reports on Sandy River and Briery Creek the last few days make no reference to muddy water? Hope this helps you make the decision as it confuses me! :confused:
OBTW, Roy, fished Swift Creek Lake in Pocahontas State Park yesterday, no problem there and there is still a good crappie bite going, nothing over ten inches, but, lots of pullage!
I am shooting for sandy river wed. about 11. never been there but here lots of good things.
Good luck to ya on exploring the new waters... Hope ya catch a bunch!Quote:

good choice though for tomorrow anyhow pick a spot any spot thinking tomorrow things will be close to normal most waters...I hadn't been in a week and fixing to move dont look good for me neither...good luck to ya where ever you may go!!!
Thanks for the input guys. Ended up going to Sandy River. Had a fun day and caught lots of fish though most of them small. Ended up going through 5 dozen minnows in about 6 hours, also caught a few on a john deer cruly tail grub. Some crappie still shallow and some with eggs. Most fish around 9' deep over about 12' water. Brought home 6 crappie, 1 bluegrill, a warmouth (good size) and a 2 1/2 pound kitty. Also caught a 5 lb bass and a nice chain pickerel. A little windy today but not too bad. Not too crowed when I took out it was about 20 trailers in the lot. Nobody fished near me all day. Hopefully I will go again someplace later this week.

Way 2 Go, Roy!!! Looks like you made a good decision.
Good day, Roy. I want to get out there soon. It's a beautiful lake, but I understand that no one catches huge crappie out of there.
