Bank Fishing

[hillbillyfisher]

Is there anywhere to bank fish on flat creek or James?

[Bill Babler]

Tons of locations. I'll let the James River, River Rats fill you in.

Blunks Hole right off of Blunk Road just outside of Galena is a great place to catch whites on the James. It's gonna get real busy there soon.

taylor hole is just below the first bend going up from rolly blunks. its not too bad a hike up there and can be well worth it this time of year.

If you go here there is an old two track, to the left, that goes upriver quite a ways. I wouldn't drive it necessarily, but walk it.

If you look up the recent post about a boat hitting a pillar on Flat Creek you'll see that the old hiway 173 still extends into the lake. There's a road, if you can call it that, that comes down off the hill to reach it. The last time I was there however I bailed on driving down it because it had washed real bad. Maybe someone can update you on it.

If you can get down to it there's a fair amount of bank space off it and the around the slough to the west.

thank you for all the replies. i have always fished the sac for whites but I've heard there is good fishing down around there. I'm going to go down Saturday and check is it out.

You may get into them at Blunks but you would be best off walking down stream to where the power line crosses the river.
