How far can you safely run up the Meherrin?
Ive never been more than 5 miles above murph. Gets a lil ruff lookin to me but im sure someone familiar with the river could go farther
I've heard Trick Worm's been all the way to where it intersects with the Mississippi! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eek.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/roll.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/roll.gif

Don't want to go quite that far!! I have a tournament there in a couple of weeks and thought I would do a little exploring. I've fished the Chowan for years but have never spent much time in the Meherrin.
Keep going until you start seeing chunks of Triton fiberglass floating in the water...then keep going a bit farther! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif

With Trick as a guide http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/bows.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/bows.gif , we went up the river until there was only a few inches of water under us and it was only wide enough to pivot the boat around. Not room enuf to make a normal turn, for sure!! Never been back... http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/Laugh.gif
still wont make it much further than any bass boat with that....unless you got a chainsaw
Come by and see us at Tunis Landing.
Maybe Fred can send you to a good spot .. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/smile.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/smile.gif
