Chickahominy Lake Fishing Report – November 26, 2014

Capt. Art Conway of Conway’s River Rat Guide Service (804-746-2475) out of Ed Allen’s Boats and Bait reported that Chickahominy Lake mid-day water temperatures were in the mid 40’s in the main lake on Wednesday (11/26/2014). The lake level was about six inches above the top of the dam. The water was light brown and relatively clear in the central lower lake.

Blue cats were scattered throughout the lake, with many in deep channel areas. Most of the crappie were in the channels and winter holes in the main lake, and were frequently near schools of bait. Active crappie were hitting live minnows, Wright Bait Co. curlytail jigs, small tubes, jigging spoons, and blade baits. Yellow perch were scattered on shorelines and hydrilla flats in the main lake and were hitting live minnows and small jigs. Larger bluegill were in the channels and were hitting small Gulp baits on drop shot rigs and small blade baits. Some bass and pickerel were on outer edges of flats along drop-offs and were hitting suspending jerk baits and lipless crankbaits. Other bass and pickerel were under bait schools in the main lake channels and hitting live minnows, swim baits, and blade baits. A few striper were roaming the mid-depth and channel areas in the main lake and taking swim baits, blade baits, and jigs.

Fishing with Capt. Conway, Terry Rivers had 8 crappie, 4 pickerel, and 1 bass.
