On this Labor Day weekend edition of West Virginia Outdoors, Chris Lawrence hits the New River with guide Larry Nibert of The West Virginia Experience for a day of smallmouth action—joined by Chris’s daughter, who more than holds her own on the water. They discuss fishing conditions, tactics, and standout catches from a banner year. Later, Mike Peters from the West Virginia DNR previews the opening of dove and early Canada goose seasons, with insights into bird behavior and the best hunting spots across the state.
