I floated from Eggleston to Ripplemead yesterday(Wednesday),and conditions were pretty good. I caught over 20 smallmouths(one nice 17"er) and fish were holding the rocky banks more than anything else, but a few were caught off the bottom of some deeper pools as well. I had a lot of luck with a wacky rigged black Senko. River was flowing pretty swift and rising.

Unfortunately,it's been raining pretty much all day today. If I get a chance to run down to the river, I'll give you an update.

Today would have probably been a good day if you could have stood being out in the pouring rain. The water was rising. The gauge at Radford does not look good now. The river at Radford is up, mud on one side pretty good color on the other. I am going to get out Sunday some where and at least rock hop and bank fish, If i can't get out in the kayak.

sallymaggie: Husband and I are interested in joining you all down on the New at Rebel's Landing for the big group float. We live up Long Shop Rd and could likely bring wood, coolers, and camping equipment. Where exactly is Rebel's Landing? Thanks for all you do! Feb 23, 2015 11:09:47 GMT -5

rob0w: Our Spring get-together is on the adjacent lot... From Prices fork rd. to McCoy rd. rt652 all the way to the stop sign, go left on Big Falls rd. up and around a short corner go right onto the gravel road and then over the RR tracks and your there Feb 24, 2015 12:19:48 GMT -5
