Shad Trips!

The Hickory and American shad are in thick in our river systems right now and very willing to hit a well placed fly! They fight hard and are often referred to as a “Poor Man’s Tarpon.” With recent rains, the James is blown out, however, we fish and guide on a smaller waterway that is not affected by the heavy rains! Striped bass and aggressive catfish follow the shad up into the rivers and can also be caught on fly. We have dates open to fish for these awesome fighters, 4/17 through 4/24. Don’t miss out on the action before they are gone!
