You can park at the entrance to Hemlock Overlook and hike down the connecting trail to the Bull Run Occoquan Trail. Take that upstream or downstream. I have been fishing this stretch for over 20 years and it is still one of my favorites.
Recently, Trent Jones and I floated/paddled 11 miles of Bull Run from Rte. 28 to Bull Run Marina. About a mile downstream from the Hemlock Overlook access point, the river gets deep and slow. Your best water for wading and fishing is upstream from Hemlock. I recommend that you hike up to Clifton Creek, get in there, and fish your way back down. Watch out during thunderstorms as this river can rise rapidly with little warning. Look at the high water marks and log jams to see what I mean. Enjoy Bull Run, it is a true gem!
