Lake Orange Who's been lately? (VA)

Featured Replies

If so how is it there I'm going tomorrow and wondering how it is there. I haven't been in several months. Any tips will help as well thanks in advance!

I haven't been to Orange in ages either. But the ongoing cold front messed up the bass in my local lake. They migrated out of a cove (where I caught numbers and size in the last week), passed the mouth of the cove and onto the main channel. Not saying that's what going on at Orange, but might be a possibility.

Also, the cove right next to the dam is my favorite spot in the whole lake. I would start in and around there.

P.S. Let us know how it went. I'm planning to hit Orange in a fortnight or so.

Sorry it took so long to get back. I just now got out there yesterday and fished from 7 to 4. My luck was bad. I only caught 7. None over 10 inches. 1 on shakey head with a Zoom watermelon/red over at the stumps on the right side of lake, I lost 2 hits when I switched to june bug. 1 on Bandit 200 Tennessee shad over by the fishing pier. I was trolling. Nothing on the Bandit 200 bluegill. 5 on wacky on *** green pumpkin/red and watermelon/red. I tossed out Senko's  blue/black laminate, green pumpkin/watermelon laminate, purple with emerald flakes, watermelon and nothing.  3 came from around that 2nd little island from the ramp. I also tossed out a c-rig setup and dropshot setup, no hits. I lost a jig and my Excalibur chrome/black rattle trap. I talked to this older couple who was out there fishing and they said they didn't even get a bite. My depth finder say the temp of water was around 64 I think that morning then 67 I think when I left. I can't recall but something around those temperatures. I manage to catch me a rock too, lol.
