• Where to Fish on B V Hedrick Sand and Gravel Lake

  Depth is unknown to us, and the shoreline is the better guide. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Rip-rap along the wall holds fish that the open bank never does. Records held for Anson County cover redbreast sunfish, bluegill and flat bullhead. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. On B V Hedrick Sand and Gravel Lake that means starting tight and working out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 41°F and July at about 80°F, the water has a wide range to work through. Fish stay active all year, but they move with the heat. The first and last hours carry the summer; the middle is slow. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. On B V Hedrick Sand and Gravel Lake the same rules apply, with local timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. Mapping shows an empty shoreline: no ramp, no jetty, no marked entry. Catfish want bait on the bottom: cut bait or worms, a simple running rig, and patience after dark. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. Smith Creek sits 1.3 miles off and takes the overflow.
