Fall is one of the best times of year to fish Virginia’s tidal rivers, where anglers can catch a variety of species, including white perch, striped bass, largemouth bass, and blue catfish. In this edition of the DWR Fishing Report, we explore the freshwater portions of Virginia’s tidal rivers. Learn simple fishing tips and techniques using live minnows, popping corks, and swimbaits, along with where to target fish around marsh edges and creek mouths. We’ll also share what DWR fisheries biologists are finding during their fall sampling and highlight our Catch of the Month. Whether you’re targeting a particular species or just heading out to see what bites, fall is a great time to explore Virginia’s tidal rivers.
