Overview
Two Days of Spectacular Fishing
Designed for adventures who want to make the most of the boulder-rich waterways of the New River Gorge, the Float Fishing – 2 Day Overnight trip is a great option. You’ll start the day in the early morning, when it’s primetime to catch Smallmouth Bass. You’ll spend about eight hours on the water, where you’ll fish in West Virginia’s deep pools and swift currents. We’ll set up a riverside camp complete with tents and dry gear once the day is done. Enjoy a fresh dinner with all the trimmings before camping underneath a star-lit sky.
Come morning time, we’ll enjoy breakfast and coffee before heading out for another full day of fishing the New River. Choose from spin fishing or fly fishing–just let us know your preference when you book your trip!
