New River (Grandview Section)
AI-suggested draft · review before you go
The New River Gorge National Park and Preserve offers outstanding smallmouth bass and muskie fishing in one of the oldest rivers in North America. The Grandview area provides accessible bank and wade fishing opportunities along the river's rocky shoreline with dramatic gorge scenery. Topwater lures and crayfish imitations are highly effective for the river's trophy smallmouth bass population.
