Briery Creek or Hunting Run

[Ldavis]

Has anyone been to either of these lakes lately? Just looking for general info.Have not been to Briery this spring and never been to Hunting Run. Plan on going this week. Also what are the directions to Hunting Run from Rt.3 East coming from Culpepper.Is a permit needed to fish Hunting Run?Thanks

I have been to both, but to Hunting Run the most recently (Friday). Check fishingva.com for reports.

Hunting Run is 2.2 miles after you take a left at the stoplight on Rt. 3 at Chancellorsville Battlefield. It is 420 acres, electric motors only. There are jon boats, and electric motors for rent if you have the need.

Yes, two permits are required, one for the property access ( ??? )and one for boat launch ($3). Both are available at the check-in shack. I have a lifetime access permit 'cause I am as old as dirt.
