I spent the Sept 23 weekend in Lewisburg where I wanted to get some bass fishing in.
I made some phone inquiries to outfitters where I learned that the waters in the Greenbrier and other rivers and creeks was very low because it had not rained for some time, so rafting and fishing was a no-go.
I did more web research and settled on Monove Lake located in Moncove Lake State Park in Gap Mills where we could rent a jon boat. It was very odd that when I called the park, the woman said the the park has very few employees over weekends. She also said that the boats are rented after 10:00 am. (So much for the morning bite.)
Moncove Lake was very muddy. That was odd because there aren't any creeks dumping into it, and it ahd not rained.
The water was so coffee colored that we didn't rent any boat.
We saw an experienced kayak angler who couldn't explain it either. He also explained that the DNR killed off all of the lily pads where the lunkers hung out; and that really killed it as a fishery.
We moved to Lake Tuckahoe, a small reservoir. It had a lot of stick-ups because it's a new reservoir. Did some shore fishing [, but no luck. There was healthy looking grass and pads, but still no bite.
I would appreciate inputs from people who are familiar with the area
