yes, I think it was 17 not 19....are they running way up the rivers to catch those smallies you think?

I was wrong the tournament before the 9th they had 16. Is the rule not one small mouth over 20” in the Staunton?

This is what the DGIF website said: Smallmouth bass

Leesville dam to mouth of Difficult Creek:

• 1 per day
• 20 inch minimum

Downstream of Difficult Creek (Charlotte County):

• 5 per day
• Only 2 of 5 may be less than 14 inches

Whattttt????

[BULLETRM]

So is there another ramp up in the Staunton that can be accessed without putting in Buggs?

Staunton river state park. Right there at the split of the Dan and the Staunton

[BULLETRM]

So I can access the river with the water down so low at this ramp?

Nothing new. If you can get to them, they're plentiful. Craig Owens was always hard to beat when the smallie bite was on.

I've heard stories for yrs about em,they just seem to be more stories lately,lol. Be something fun and different to do. I would never try to run for em in a tournament,but for fun Absolutely ��
