Thread: where to go for crappie

I enjoy fishing Chickahominy river above Rockahock dam near Williamsburg Va in the spring. There are some huge crappie there. Spring comes much earlier then we experience in Pa. Lodging is Available in Williamsburg at a very good rate in March. Two guys came into Ed Allens launch last year with a 10 lb. 6 ounce large mouth when we were launching. Ed said I weighed a 13 lb. yesterday! You can have days in the mid 70s or even warmer in early March so it is kind of like going to Florida in the winter. Your boat and motor will work well as well as the troller for smaller lakes in the area. Limit is 25 a day and that is expected most days. Just a nice trip and fish to take home. Also there are cypress trees in the lake with eagle and fish hawk nests.
