Hi Bob, one of the things you want to do for a beginner is to take as much of the frustration out of it as possible, ie. back casts into the trees, tangles, tying knots etc... In my opinion I would rent a boat from Fletchers and row up to below the bridge and float back down, you can repeat a few times depending on how long you want to stay out. Fish the VA. shore with some streamers or poppers for bass. Catfish will also take a streamer. No worries about back casts, you can have a cooler with food and drinks, and its a very pleasent way to fish. You should plan on not fishing and work the boat and help her with tangles & knot tying. If you don't catch any fish it is a very nice boat ride. If you are going to do it this way go either early or later in the day. Avoid mid day sun if possible, or go on an overcast day. Good luck.
