So what do you think about late september on charleston

Well, I going back to Upper Rideau. We fished last September at Charleston Lake on Bull Island near Kelsey's. We caught lots of smallies, but they were not usually over 2#, We did catch a couple of 2# largemouth and I caught a 3.5 smallie. We caught most everything on pumpkin seed or motor oil drop-...

Upper Rideau Resorts near Westport are very clean and private cabins.
Boat Rental from Norris Tackle and they will deliver to resort.

Looking for info on fishing around Bull island near Kelseys Marina?? August timeframe.

Cold and Windy and still caught a +nickel on topwater... Wow.

Great pics and that's a really nice perch and some big uns Largies. Looks like everyone had a good time. Its great that the whole family can share activities and build those memories for a lifetime..

Boboer, You do a great job, I think this is the best board for fishing I've ever used. 98.9 of everyone is polite and extremely helpful. It's a sad day when just a few bad apples spoil it for the rest of the good well intentioned users. I was a system administrator for a unix system for several year...

Nice report, great photos.

Gang, The weather in DC has been unbearable, we received record snows in late winter and now the heat. My concern is water levels in the Rideau waterway. Our trip up is Set 18th-25th. Any idea when drawn down will begin this Fall. Also would be nice to know how fishing was this Spring and Summer on ...

So gang, From what I've read in reviews, the Triton is a little more, but features are standards. I was heart-set on the Tracker till I started looking at others, G3, Express Silver, VT17 etc.. I really like the three seat, 46# thrust trolling motor, really wish they put a combo depth finder/GPS. Ha...

Yes its true Virginia, we do have lots of Bald Eagles. the Potomac River below DC is loaded with Eagles and Ospreys. We had a pair of eagles nesting on one of the bridges between VA and District. They were named George and Martha. After a year another female came in and "removed" Martha fr...

Here's are report on Bald Eagles. Plus the link to identify juvees - they don't have wh head. http://www.wildnatureimages.com/BaldEaglePhotos.htm BALD EAGLE PHOTOS All of our Bald Eagle photos were captured in the Alaska wild, mostly on the Kenai Peninsula. It is a pleasure to watch such magnificent...

Last year in September, we stayed at URR near Westport. Several of the many helpful people on this board helped with suggestions for our 1 day road trip. We ended up choosing Charleston Lake based on glowing recommendations of 100+ days of smallmoth fishing. I loved the lake, but at the time could n...

Here's the recent standing by VGIF. http://www.dgif.virginia.gov/fishing/snakehead-faq.asp BTW- several anglers think there will be snakehead tournaments soon. They strike lures like a bass and eat well in skillet (so I've been told). I fish the Potomac and Occoquan 20 times a year +/-, never caught...

I've seen some promising reports on fishing for walleyes and pike in this lake. Anyone have an objective view. Internet sites are more good news info. However this discussion board is great, I've corresponded with several knowledgeable and helpful people.
Thanks to those of you maintain this site.
