Question James River

Making another trip to Williamsburg/Jamestown next month and I'm thinking about getting a guide one day.....

Bringing the family so a pontoon boat would be ideal.....

Anybody got any leads?....is that area of the river good for the big cats down there?

The dominant bait is fresh gizzard shad taken with a castnet or gillnet. Other popular baits, particularly during this time of year, are white perch, eels and blue crab.

Hey Jamie, is there a fishing forum you're NOT a member of ?
