Big Ditch Wildlife Management Area

From West Virginia (WV) Cyclopedia

Webster County: 0.5 m W of Cowen, West Virginia

The Big Ditch Wildlife Management Area -- 388 acres -- spans a small valley with moderate side slopes offering small game, waterfowl, and bowhunting; however, hunting is limited by the area's small size. Big Ditch Lake, 55 acres, provides warmwater fishing for largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, and channel catfish. Fishing piers accommodate wheelchairs. Boats may use electric motors only. Located on County Route 30, 15 miles southwest of Webster Springs. Information provided by WVDNR.
