Anglers of all ages are invited to the 2026 Occoquan Shad Run this Saturday. The Town of Occoquan is hosting the free event from 9 a.m. to noon on April 11 at River Mill Park, giving participants a chance to fish the historic Occoquan River during the spring shad migration.
Anglers can cast from approved riverbank spots, the footbridge or by launching a kayak or boat directly onto the water. The run focuses mainly on hickory shad, though American shad may appear. American shad must be released immediately because of a statewide conservation moratorium.
