There are a lot of streams and creeks, the Potomac river and a few other rivers around there to fish.  Google Earth or Maps is a good tool to use to find places to fish.

Welcome, CB.  I'm also in Woodbridge.  Keep an eye on the Occoquan thread:

Between Occoquan, Potomac and lots of smaller bodies of water, this is a pretty decent bass fishing area.  Much depends on whether you have a boat, how far you want to travel, etc.

Thanks. I don't have a boat, maybe someday lol. I was looking for something close, but if it's worth it travel would be ok. I used to live by Fort Belvoir and would go on post frequently. 

Cool.  I work on Belvoir.  Between the piers and the banks, there's pretty good bass fishing right here.  I don't have a boat either, but I rent from both Lake Ridge and Fountainhead.  Trolling motors limit you somewhat, but there's still a lot of water to cover from those two parks and it can take years to learn.  Burke also rents boats, but I never had much luck there. 

   Pohick rents boats, but the hours are screwy and launching/recovering can be a challenge if the tide is out.

    For shore/bank fishing, there's the entire Potomac, many lakes and ponds and some of the Occoquan rez and river.  If in the market to rent a boat a little farther out, I've also rented at Orange, Brittle and Anna and many, many times at Hunting Run.  I'd be glad to pass on my experiences.

Representing Chesapeake!

Greetings fellow anglers,

        Recently bought a SOT kayak and decided to get back into bass fishing (it's been over 10 years). Located in Bowling Green.

Ok thanks, Just curious is there anyone on here that fishes there or would like to fish it?

I'm from Chesapeake too.  Apparently there's a lot of us  I stick to the smaller bodies of water nearby (Speight's Run, Prince, Western Branch, Cahoon, Meade, Lone Star Lakes, etc.  

AreWeFishingYet, I have checked the latest obituaries and it seems that I am still around.

No promises for next week.

Wow, VA is representin'!  Good to see so many anglers from VA on here.

Chesapeake angler .. New to chesapeake area though ... See not many have posted here for a while .. Who's Down to fish .. I'm boat shopping

New to this forum, live in Arlington and looking for some good spots in the area to fish.

 

Please PM me with any recommendations, or if you would be up for going fishing.  I literally have zero friends who fish so, definitely open to it.

hello!

 

im in the centreville VA area. mostly fish from a kayak with a few other kayak owners. I own a trolling motor for jon rentals.

Woodbridge here.  I split my time mostly between jon boats (rented out of Lake Ridge and Fountainhead); and kayaking from (Bull Run, Belvoir, Pohick, Occoquan) with occasional road trips to Front Royal, Hampton Roads, etc.  Next time I am headed to Fountainhead or Lake Ridge and I know in advance that my wife won't be along, I'll send a PM.

Roanoke is home. Live about 15 mins from the Hardy ramp at Smith Mountain Lake. Member of East Gate club.

Glad to see so many Virginia folks.
