Fishing

Beaverdam Reservoir is part of the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources, fisheries management program. Studies are conducted each year with stocking programs implemented as needed.   Beaverdam Reservoir is home to species such as large mouth bass, catfish, carp and a variety of pan fish species.  To protect this drinking water source, we ask that all guests properly dispose of used fishing line, hooks, bait containers and trash prior to leaving the park.  Fishing is permitted from the water, the shoreline around the reservoir and the Crew Overlook Pier within Reservoir Park. Fishing from the pedestrian bridge and central pier located at the boat rental marina is prohibited.  Live bait, basic fishing equipment, snacks and drinks will be available seasonally for purchase at the boat rental marina. Please follow all Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources requirements for fishing.  View the most recent biologist management report.
