Rich in angling lore, the secluded lakes and rivers of
Virginia's Highlands offer some of the best trout and smallmouth
bass fishing found anywhere in the state. From the Alleghany
Highlands in the north (which encompass Alleghany, Bath, and
Rockbridge counties) to the Blue Ridge/Grayson Highlands in the
southwest (which include Grayson, Smythe, and Washington counties),
these portions of the commonwealth offer many high-yield rivers,
lakes, and streams including Lake Moomaw, the Maury River, South
Holston Lake, and the North Fork of the Holston River. In his new
guide, Fishing Virginia's Highlands, M. W. Smith extends his
ongoing tour of the state's greatest fishing spots to these two
remote regions, offering readers excellent advice on where, when,
and how to catch more fish in Virginia's Highlands.
Renowned for its mineral springs, the Alleghany Highlands is
home to world-famous spas, including the Homestead in Bath County,
making it a popular destination for many outdoor enthusiasts. The
Blue Ridge/Grayson Highlands, which is surrounded by such cities as
Abingdon, Bristol, Winston-Salem/Greensboro, and Charlotte, is also
a common weekend getaway spot. By considering these two areas in
one volume, Smith provides valuable information for anglers and
other visitors, giving readers the information they need to enjoy
the natural beauty of the waters and to catch more fish from them.
Complete with a comprehensive map of the regions' streams, notes on
specific fishing locations keyed to maps in DeLorme's Virginia
Atlas and Gazetteer, and an appendix that lists local guide
services, tackle shops, camping sites, and parks, Smith's guidebook
is a compact and informative resource.
Whether you are a visitor or a longtime resident, novice angler
or pro, Fishing Virginia's Highlands will prove an indispensable
guide to every fishing adventure you undertake in highland
waters.
