Background:
This two phase project was completed in 2001 and received $100,298 in VSRFDF grant funds. The facility has two landing ramps and a floating dock. The facility also has handicapped accessible restrooms and fishing pier. There is no fee to use the facility and the pier is covered by a blanket license, so individual licenses are not required to fish on the pier. Anglers using the Jones Creek facility often catch spot, croaker, white perch, flounder and rockfish.
