    Smile New to the site


    Hello fellow fishing hounds. I'm new here but have been reading a few posts over the last 2 weeks and think the site is great. Me and my fishing buddy are here in Newport News but have yet to come up with a favorite crappie hole. We've had some good luck at Ed Allens last year and limited success at lake Prince and LCR. After looking at the LCR map from Keith Davis, we are anxious to give it another whirl. Have never tried Lake Kerr but am beginning to believe that was a mistake.
    Looking forward to hearing some good fishing reports, sharing some info and posting some of my own good news.
    See you all on the water!!

    Thanks all for the welcome. This winter has been rough so far. Cabin fever like crazy!
    I understand Kerr is huge. Any suggestions where to launch and point the bow in a certain direction?? Any advice will be appreciated.
    Thanks again.

    Welcome to the board. Kerr is a very big lake. I go over a couple times a year and could continue for many years I think and still not cover it all. Rudd's is probably the closest and it's about 2 1/2 hour drive from Chesapeake. I've fished it a few times but not enough to tell you where to go. Dave is our resident expert on the lake and hopefully will jump in here and point you in a good starting direction.
