Great!

 

The stocking of the Florida strain bass in the Chickahominy River has been successful. 

 

We now can catch them in both the Chickahominy and Historic James rivers.

What about the regular James river? Sorry, just kidding

There are actually two Historic James rivers.

 

The first is from the I-95 bridge in Richmond to the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay in Tidewater. This is tidal water.

 

The second is from the Historic James' roots in the mountains of western Virginia to the fall line, or the I-95 bridge in Richmond. This is not a tidal river.

 

The regular James river does not exist. Since America was settled in Virginia and President Lincoln came up the Historic James and got off at Jordan Point in Hopewell to tour Petersburg and Richmond during The War of Northern Agression, the river has its historic roots strongly burried American history. 

 

Come on over and fish and sightsee the beautiful river; the eagles; osprey; foliage, creeks, and catch some nice bass.

You will have some great fishing when they grow up.

 

Six and seven pounders will be normal.

They stock a lot of Florida bass in the Tennessee River also. They rely on the Florida bass breeding with the natives and creating the F1 hybrids. Sounds like they are just going straight to the F1 stocking in Norman
