***OFF LIMITS—–On the Chick/James River tournament, the Pits in the back of Chippokes and casting over any dams (concrete or earthen) are off limits. In addition, there is no fishing at the Chickahominy Dam. You are not allowed to cast pass the floating dock at Rockahock. Also, you cannot fish beyond the creek mouth or be inside of Cornelius Creek. If you feel that the area you are fishing may fall into these areas, discuss with the tournament director prior to the tournament for further clarification.
