Hi all! Long time lurker-first time poster here....
I drove to Woodstock, VA last weekend which was a 90 minute drive and fished the Shenandoah North Fork at the Burnshire Dam. I was the only one out there for a long time. You can wade up and down the river. There's one point of public access which was really easy to get to. The river is really nice, surrounded by nice woods and the sounds of the water going over the dam and water going over the rocks.
If you want to kill a few more minutes you can drive a little south and go to Murray's Fly Shop. Really nice and knowledgeable people there.
Danny,
Where's a good spot to park to hike into the confluence? I've heard about fishing there but haven't made it yet. Thank you in advance!
Thanks,
Steve

Some friends and I are looking to fish for bass around July 11. We're trying to keep things low-budget and local - so no boat or guides. One of the guys is a moderately experienced fly fisher, and the other is a casual spin fisher, so going after carp may be a bit too much of a challenge for the latter.Any ideas on somewhere relatively close to NoVa where we could wade (legally and at least somewhat safely) for bass? Ideally, I'm looking for somewhere nice looking (so no 4MR, for example), relatively easy to figure out/fish, and that is off the beaten path/not full of people.If there aren't any great options, I guess we could fish a lake. But that's not the most exciting prospect. If we go the lake route, I think we'll probably head to Burke.
