Those of you who know me know my family and I take at least one trip to the New River each year and it has been Memorial Day weekend with her family for 3 years straight now.  There are about 20 of us camping on a river bank and, of course, the guys do alot of fishing!  I caught my fair share of smallmouth bass each day with the biggest landed being 16".  I jumped a couple MONSTERS but they were just to smart, as usual.

And, my daughter, I can't get her to fish but she loves to play in the water:

Hey Kent, what section were you fishing?

We (several of us at work) float the Eggleston to Pembroke section sevral times a year. We haven't been this year, but it looks like the fish are co-operating now. We have been down the Maury a couple times this year. We float from Glen Maury Park down to a take out spot on River Road.

HEY KENT EVER TRY FISHING FOR SMALLIES ON THE JAMES RIVER AT SCOTTSVILLE ITS ONLY ABOUT THREE HOURS FROM HAMPTON ROADS.
