Does anyone have any suggestions for boat ramps near Tappahannock? I'm thinking about fishing the Rap between there and the 301 bridge next weekend.

Vekol,

There is a campground with a ramp across the river from the town of Tappahannock.  You just cross the bridge and take your first left and follow thw detour signs, they bring you out right in front of the campground.

There is June Parker Marina off Route 17, just east of the 360 bridge and the Shoreline Marine to the right of the bridge, all on the south side in Tappahannock.

Naylors Beach off Route 634 is up-river and across frm Mallorys Point off Route 360.

Heading towards the 301 bridge, which is a l-o-n-g way up river, about 35 miles, there is Hicks Landing off Route 17, before you get to the 301 bridge heading east from Fredericksburg.

Look for the country store and pay your $8 ramp fee and then take the dirt road to the ramp.

At the 301 bridge there is Port Royal Landing on the south side of the bridge near Gouldman Creek.

Leedstown Campground is on the northern side of the Rapp off route 637.

Please get a GMCO map and you can see these places.  

I suggest trying to calling them to make sure they are open.

Watch the tides and have some fun.

Why not?

LOL thats a joke I was talking about mattaponi and pamunkey ;D ;D ;D

no size but you can catch alot of bass

Unless you want to fish for smallies

Caught one there last year that was close to 5.  Where on the river do you fish?

any spot with water on it

The Pamunkey and Mattaponi should be getting better in late September then October and into November as the water cools and the bass start to move around and get ready for winter.

I fish around Hicks Landing on the Pamunkey and the Walkerton area, both up and down river, on the Mattaponi.

I am sure that you will do well where ever you fish.
