    Great video VDGIF! Always a great idea to highlight how exciting and rewarding it is to catch the fish of 10,000 casts. BUT, even as important, how to properly release a fish after it has been caught so another angler has that opportunity. Thanks!

      I was in Wayne County WVa. I was Superintendent on a Walmart remodel. I was staying in this Fine Establishment with Daily, weekly and I swear....hourly rates. The River/Creek was behind the motel and was the State Line. I was just looking at the water on a cool afternoon and I was wondering what the fucking river monster was I was looking at. I realized I had just seen my first Muskie. I am from Winston-Salem NC. No muskie here

    Hooking and handling an average-sized trout gets my adrenaline going. I'd probably explode getting one of these to the net! I can't wait to fish the Commonwealth- Virginia is badass.

      I think pollution is a far worse problem here in industrialized Virginia. Look at the amount of PCBs IN EVERY WATERWAY.
