I can enjoy some warm water fishing myself. Where do you fish at? There is not any really good crappie fishing in my local area. IMO. I do not mind traveling and have put a good bit of fishing time in Va. Most of the Va crappie fishing is very early in the year. I did 2 different trips to Beaver Dam park to fish the upper end of the creek in January. We had some warm weather and they were in there in numbers. Almost everyone had limits of 12 inch plus fish. However as soon as it cooled down they shut off. I also like going to Chickahominy ( spelling) river - Dam. We launch out of Ed Allens and go up to the upper end. This can be very good for crapppie and other species in March. I spent a lot of time in the Williamsburg area as my diseased inlaws lived there for 30 years. Most people think Colonial Williamsburg and Bush gardens but it also has many lakes that offer some great warm water fishing. In March motel rates are extremely reasonable and they have a jump on the spring weather.
