On this exciting episode of Fishing the DMV revisit in old episode from a couple years ago that is extremely topical sense. The invasive Alabama Bass was found in Smith Mountain Lake this past week!! I have the privilege to head to the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources headquarters in Richmond to discuss the invasive Alabama Bass problem. The Alabama Bass represents a tremendous threat to Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass fisheries. Alabama bass negatively impact smallmouth bass by outcompeting them for resources, hybridizing with them to the point of replacing the native species, and creating fisheries with smaller adult bass.
