This post is for all NAFC members that live in Virginia, to sign in here and tell us where you are from in Virginia. That way, if any of you want to get together later and start up a state chapter. I have started a "NAFC Virginia Chapter" post for those that would like to start one up. If you have any questions, just go to the Ohio page and post them there and someone will give you an answer. Good luck folks. Now, Who's gonna be the first Virginia member to sign in ?.... <!--graemlin::D-->

Hi all!

Lifer here from 1991. Just moved to Roanoke, VA from near Allentown PA.  I would love to hear about some of the fishing in the area. I am reading a lot about Smith Mountain Lake.  I fish for all species and being on the water is reward enough for me. Catching fish is a bonus! (I usually do ;-) I do not currently have a boat but we will be in the market over the winter. I do some catch and release but prefer to eat what I catch. Looking forward to hearing from all of you.  Looks like quite a few PA people here. Beutiful area!  Looking forward to exploring some new fishing grounds!

Bill

Bass11 here.I think we should have a meeting sometime before June.Any one ever hered of Northwest river park?Well you guys should really....well we should have a meeting.

Howdy fellow Virginnians,

    I grew up in Roanoke, VA and fished alot on the Roanoke, James and Shenandoah Rivers. Did alot of trout fishing too over in Botatot county. My father still has a place on Smith Mountain Lake where he's been fishing the lake since they flooded it.

    I was also in Quantico, VA while in the Marine Corp. and put a few hours on the Potomac that ran along the base. Good for catfish'n, crappie fishing and even some stripers during that magical spawn time.

    I'm now in upstate NY, but visit atleast once a year and still get out on her waters.

Just saying howdy ya'll.

Hey guys, new to this forum, but not a new club member. Im Brian from Washington County VA and I am a Police Officer. Just moved from Richmond a few years ago. New kinda fishing out here on the rivers. Just got my life membership. Wanting to learn to fish for strippers and cats. Smallmouth are my favorite with a trout mixed in here and there. Look forward to talking and learning from everyone.

Hello all,

I'm going to be a resident of VA, this Nov. I'm being station at Ft. Lee.

Would like to be added to the NAFC VA. Member List.

Hi everyone, I'm a new life member since 05/08 and lived in virginia since 04. I live on the eastern shore and do alot of fresh water fishing. The problem is not many fresh water spots here on the shore. Sure there are alot of ponds around here but very hard to get in because of the land owners dont want anyone on them, past experiences of fishermen. Nothing we can do about that. I'm just looking for go places on the shore to fish out of my canoe fresh water perferably. I do fish salt water, but I love fresh water. Nothing like a big bass on ultra light gear. I know of about 5 ponds to fish on right now but would like more of an option. I was thinking about putting an ad in the local paper what kind of advice can I get. That and finding the land owner is like finding a needle in a hay stack.................lmao      thanks for the advice and good fishing to you all................         Chuck

PS.... add me to the list please, thanks

Greetings & Salutations Fellow Virginians from just another F N G (Fishing club New Guy). . .

I recently purchased some property on John's Creek in Craig County just North of Blacksburg/VaTech near the WV border.

It's strictly catch & release - stocked twice a year with rainbows, browns & brooks with enforced private access.  I've already discovered a couple of "honey holes" with some really, really nice rainbows . . .

I've always wanted to give fly fishing a try & now I have no excuse to see whether or not "an ol' dog can learn a new trick?". . .

Tejano - that's Tay-hah'-no - just in case you don't savvy Tex-Mex . . . Yeah, I'm a dis-placed native Texican! 

Manassas, VA - Lifer since '93.

Types vary - everything from Stripers in the Potomac to Smallies in the 'Doah, with a smattering of Blues & Specks at the beach for good measure.

dont know if ur still checking in on the site but would love to get together and have u teach me some of the areas around here to fish. just moved here from Ga and not too familiar with River fishing. i own 2 boats. 20ft Stratos and 16ft jon.
