Are there VA statutes that extend public ownership or right to recreational use beyond navigable waters?
That's the key question under dispute (in both states, AFAIK). Frankly, I'm surprised it's taken this long for some states to sort this one out, as other states have specific statements on the books...

From what I understand all rivers and streams in VA are public save those that were explicitly ceded by The Crown.
