My brother an I fished Rivanna Reservoir this past Friday. The water was extremely muddy with lots of debris floating around due to recent rains. The water temperature ranged from 64-71 depending on the area. We fished for about 4 hours total. I caught one bass right at 3 lbs, my brother caught one very small bass. Mine was caught off of a buzzbait right next to a weed bed. I basically hit him in the head with the cast and he missed it the first time. The next cast he absolutely nailed it. We both would have liked to fish longer, but had to get to my niece's graduation in Harrisonburg. I will definitely be back out there once we get a stretch of nice weather...I'm not much on fishing muddy, debris filled water. Putting in was a little difficult, as my fiberglass bass boat is 17' 6" long. I wouldn't recommend anything longer than maybe 18'. I can imagine parking would be tough on the weekends, but there was no one else out there in a boat this day.
