Bluegill
Looking for some bluegill action near Troutville, Virginia? You're in luck. While not as famed as some other fisheries, the smaller ponds and lakes scattered around the area can hold surprisingly good populations of bluegill. Greenfield Lake, near Interstate 81, is a convenient option. Spring and early summer, during the spawning season, is when bluegill are most concentrated in the shallows and easiest to catch. Look for bedding areas in protected coves or near submerged vegetation. A simple setup with a bobber, small hook, and worm or cricket is all you need. Evenings can be particularly productive as the sun sets and the fish become more active. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain healthy populations in these smaller waters. The Roanoke River also holds bluegill in its slower sections, but access can be more challenging.
