Fishing the Chickahominy
Anglers’ Paradise
The Chickahominy’s broad expanses of open marshes, cypress tree shorelines, and many fish species offer anglers ideal tidal river fishing. A nationally recognized largemouth bass fishery promises excellent bass fishing, with catch rates typically topping those of all other tidal rivers in Virginia.
Marina Store
Our on-site marina store offers anglers a variety of bait, including night crawlers, frozen squid, and frozen shrimp.
Local Fish
Largemouth bass, black crappie, yellow perch, and white perch are found in our local waters.
