    Chickahominy Lake mid-day water
    temperatures were in the high 40’s in the lower main lake and the low to mid
    50’s in the major creeks on Wednesday (3/13/2019). The lake level was a few
    inches above the top of the dam. The water was light brown and slightly to
    moderately cloudy in the central lake.

    Some blue cats and bullheads were along drop-offs and in channels in the
    main lake while others had dispersed onto flats. When active, cats were
    hitting live minnows and cut bait. Some crappie were still on drop-offs and
    in channels in the main lake, especially near wood cover, but others have
    begun moving into the major creeks. Activity has varied with water
    temperature stability, with active crappie hitting live minnows, Wright Bait
    Co. and Southern Pro curlytail jigs, small tubes, Kalin crappie scrubs,
    blade baits, jerk baits, and small swim baits. Yellow and white perch were
    scattered or in loose aggregates on deep flats, drop-offs, and channels in
    the main lake, with some yellow perch moving into major creeks. When
    active, both perch species were hitting live minnows, small swim baits, and
    small jigs. Most bluegill and shellcracker were along drop-offs or in
    channels in the main lake and when active were tentatively hitting live
    worms, Nikko nymphs, and small swimbaits. Some bass and pickerel were along
    shorelines in coves and in creeks on sunny days, while other bass and
    pickerel were on deeper flats, along drop-offs, or in channels in the main
    lake. When active, bass and pickerel were hitting live minnows,
    spinnerbaits, swim baits, stick worms, crank baits, jerk baits, and jigs.
