• Where to Fish on Mckenney Hunt Club Lake

  Depth is not on record here, so the bank has to tell you. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. Survey and observation records for Dinwiddie County include Roanoke darter, tessellated darter, bluegill, glassy darter and chainback darter. Several of these carry legal protection or closed seasons; the rulebook comes before the rod. On Mckenney Hunt Club Lake the first feature you find is usually worth a session.
