As you enter the museum you will be delighted with
the exhibits that you will see.
We offer the one of the finest displays of fishing
artifacts from the past, a past which once hailed Reedville as the fishing
capitol of the East Coast.
The evolution from wickerworks as a method of
catching fish to pound netting is shown in this exhibit. Pound netting
is still a way of fishing here in the Northern Neck, and produces millions
of pounds of fish yearly for consumption all over the country.
Old tackle, netting and other antiques
are included in our exhibit.
