I’ve done the Kelly’s Ford to Mott’s Run float probably 6 times with Clore Bros Outfitters (now out of business) and it’s a solid 2-day hard-paddling workout. I’d suggest if you want to fish more than paddle, to start farther downstream than Kelly’s Ford. Maybe get on at Rappahannock River Outfitters at 32645 River Mill Rd, Richardsville, VA 22736 - see attached.

Or have VA Outdoor Center (VOC, at www.playva.com) take you on a shuttled trip above the fall line (Fredericksburg city) on the Rappahannock? For example, the Hole-in-the-wall to VOC trip is 10 miles on the water and takes ~6 hrs (includes some modest rapids). It’s a good time.

Were you coming in on 619?

From this site:

"Due to ongoing private property concerns, the access to the City of Fredericksburg’s watershed property at the Confluence of the Rappahannock and Rapidan River’s is closed and inaccessible. FOR staff has been engaged with City staff and continues to advocate for this important recreation asset to be re-established. For more information please contact our office at 540-373-3448."

Wow what a shame.

I did the Hole in the Wall to Motts Run float via VOC a few weeks ago - it is a nice day-long float that gives you plenty of time to fish.
