Honestly a little slow. This whole year has been dink city. Nothing to brag about that is for sure. I am approaching 100 bass for the year, and nothing over 5(not including minnows on the river). A little baffling. How about you?

Catfish can be caught anywhere along the Wolf River if you can get down the bank to the river. The undergrowth is getting pretty thick. I've caught nice 3 - 5 pounders under the bridges.

Might wanna take a look at the map, it's Kerr lake that spans both Va. and NC. there is a reason it's called Buggs.

I know the area quite well. In fact I live on the lake during the week. The fish was caught near Clarksville, VA....thus my "VA side" comment.

And its called Buggs after the island just the other side of the dam.

Just showing some Virginia pride....

I've also caught bass by throwing small white spinners upstream of the stumps and logs.
