To quote from the Virginia fishing regulations:

Regulations for Buffalo Creek restrict fishing to the use of single hook, artificial lures and the creel is two fish per day over 16 inches.

The special regulation area for Buffalo Creek includes that section of stream from the confluence of Colliers Creek upstream 2.9 miles to the confluence of North and South Forks of Buffalo Creek. The stream flows through private land and requires a written landowner permit to fish, which is available from the Department office in Verona (please include a self-addressed, stamped envelope). Brown and rainbow trout are stocked annually as subcatchables, and good numbers of 10-16 inch fish are available. Trophy fish of 5-8 pounds have been caught in the stream. Buffalo Creek can be reached by taking Route 251 from Lexington.

The address of the Verona office is:

POB 996
Verona, VA 24482

Be sure to list your full name - the permission they send back is good for a year.  If you have questions, contact the Verona office at (540) 248-9360
