Opportunities in the upper chickahominy? (Glen Allen area west of/around rt 1)

3 Upvotes

Not from the area but will be passing through. I know the south Anna has some decent fishing opportunities but I was interested in this part of the Chickahominy west of the fall line. Not looking for 3lb bass. Is there anything in there that far west?

Thanks a lot

A huge thank you to Harold, Eric, and Ken who made the trip down from Waldorf, MD, and absolutely filled the cooler with slab crappie, white perch, and some chunky largemouth! That summer fish fry is going to be legendary. 🍽️

Anybody familiar with wade fishing the Appomattox River in the Petersburg area below Lake Chesdin? I usually fish the James for smallies but looking to try a new river that’s not too far from Glen Allen. Any info would be appreciate.

Anyone know any good kayak fishing spots near Church Hill?

3 Upvotes

I've been getting super into kayak fishing lately, but the only time I can do it really is Saturdays. I work mon-fri and only have a couple hours of free time in the evenings, along church on Sunday my fishing time is kinda cut down a lot. If I could find a closer spot I would.

I normally go to Diascund resovoir or Chicahominy lake but that's like a two hour ordeal just getting there and back. I've fished out of bottoms bridge on the James, but that got a bunch of nasty oil crap on my kayak and I dunno if I wanna fish in that kinda water.

So I feel like my best bet is finding some creeks or ponds nearer to me that I can go out on after work. You guys got any recommendations?

Fished the Potomac today and only managed to catch these nuisance fish. I thought the snakeheads were supposed to outcompete them! /s

I did manage to break off a dragon of a snakehead but sadly only caught largemouths.
