Pohick Bay Regional Park

Pohick Bay Regional Park is an excellent place to enjoy a day of fishing on the bay. The area is home to bluegill, carp, catfish, crappie, largemouth bass, striped bass, and perch which can be caught all year round in Pohick Bay on the Potomac River. Perch fishing peaks in the spring. Striped bass can also be found in early spring but peak in the fall. Fisherman can enjoy fishing from the shoreline, personal boats launched at the park’s boat ramp or boat rentals to head out for a day on the water. All fishing in Virginia requires a license.
