We took the family down to Hot Springs, Virginia and I was able to spend a precious few hours casting into the Jackson River.
As I was walking the banks, I came across this magnificent berry bush covered in glowing red berries. Raspberries, I thought! But as I got a little closer, I knew these were not raspberries. I picked them anyway, but waited on stuffing my face. When i got back to the cottage, I did a little research and quickly identified them as Japanese Wineberries, They are considered an invasive species, but man are they delicious. They are related to the raspberry, but have a distinctive sweet / tart flavor. I honestly have never heard of them around Pennsylvania, but I will definitely be looking out for then in Virginia.
