Kerr Reservoir—better known to anglers as Buggs Island Lake. Joined by Michael Womack and Billy Hoffer, we take a deep dive into how the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built and manages one of the most important reservoirs in the Mid-Atlantic. From its origins during World War II to the thriving largemouth and striped bass fishery anglers enjoy today, this episode breaks down the construction of Kerr Dam, modern reservoir operations, and the conservation work that keeps Buggs Island one of the premier bass fishing destinations in Virginia and North Carolina.John H.
