22 Fishing Spots West Virginia

With 22 documented fishing spots, the Lake DiCio Area Fishing Spots stands as one of West Virginia's premier angling regions. The zone boasts 16 trophy-producing reservoirs, 3 crystal-clear lakes and 3 productive bays where Largemouth Bass, Catfish, and other popular gamefish thrive in healthy populations throughout the season.

Fishing is productive from April through October, with spring and fall offering the best action. Local anglers recommend bringing a variety of tackle to match the diverse water conditions found throughout the zone. From shallow weedlines to deep structure, each waterway presents its own unique challenges and rewards.

For bass in this region, local anglers favor a mix of artificial lures and live bait depending on conditions. Soft plastics, crankbaits, and spinnerbaits consistently produce results across the reservoirs here. Bank anglers find success near points, fallen timber, and weed edges, while boaters often work deeper structure and drop-offs. Fly fishing enthusiasts will find opportunities on the moving water in this zone, particularly during spring and fall hatches.

The Lake DiCio Area Fishing Spots is well-suited for both day trips and extended fishing vacations. With 22 spots to explore, you could spend weeks discovering new water in this zone alone.
