New River
The New River, one of the oldest in the world and one of the few rivers that flow south to north, is home to several Virginia State Record fish. The state record Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, and Muskellunge (Musky) were pulled from the New River. The New River is a broad river with deep pools, beautiful bluffs, shoals, scattered islands, and rocky river-wide ledges. There are six ramps that are perfect to launch your boat and float fish the river. You can rent kayaks and canoes at the New River Trail State Park Foster Falls access.
