Hi from Richmond, Va

Featured Replies

I have done right much reading on this site the last month or so and finally decided to join.  Good information already obtained but ready to learn even more. 

I fish the James River right often and Chickahominy river runoffs, more like the swamp sections in Henrico.  Tommorrow I plan to fish the pond near my work on Southlake Blvd.

Glad to join Bass Resource!

hey welcome to the forum lots of people from rva and the areas near by.

Slow, great having you with us.

Ask your questions and you will get lots of great advice.

As for the pond on Southlake, it is not that good.

At least for artificial baits.

Try some nightcrawlers and minnows.

Try fishing all around the pond, especially the shoreline where you can cast to the small island.

The other pond, towards DMV, never has produced one bite for me so forget that one.

Lots of bream in the Southlake pond but give it a shot and let us know how you do.  :)

Thanks guys for the warm welcome. 

Sam, today on my lunch break I fished at the pond on Lucks Lane near St. Francis, saw plenty of bream but did not catch any bass. 

After work its Southlake pond.  I will report back upon fishing there.

welcome to BR

I live on the peninsula so the chick is one of my favorite places to fish along with some local ponds gl fishing :P

Slow, thanks for the input on that big pond off Lucks Lane.

I have always wanted to fish it but never had the time.

It looks beautiful and there just has to be some nice ones in that body of water.

Let us know how you do at Southlake.

Have you tried the big pond behind the Martin's grocery store off Huguenot Road by Forest Hill Avenue?  :)

Hit the southlake pond about 5:20 and fished until dark.  I caught one bass, cant get the picture uploaded but he was the only one.  Probably 2 lbs.

Another guy was there catching right many crappie from this one spot.  He stayed after dark and I believe was keeping his for a meal.

Sam - I've never fished at the pond behind Martins Grocery Store.  Maybe that will be the next spot I try.  I live close to Patriots landing and work in Midlothian.  I want to try those ponds out there but I am not sure if the public is allowed.

I guess I can't see welcome to the boards since technically you joined before me but welcome anyways.  Just trying to get in touch with as many Richmond people as I can so I'll have fun people to fish with for next year.
