South Mayo River fishing regulations

Virginia DWR classifies water on the South Mayo River as Class II and Class III, managed as wild. This is a designation of the fishery, not the season and creel rules. Virginia DWR records brook trout in the classified reaches. The posted signs and the current digest are the authority, not this page.
