Anyone been to the Powhatan Lakes in Va lately?

Featured Replies

Hey, curious to see if anyone has been fishing out there lately.  I read on the VA dept. of game and inland fisheries website that they will be restocking that place, I guess since April 24th 08, when the upper lake d**n was repaired.  If you have been, what did you use?

Thanks,

Sam, you posted on the forum here?  You have my phone number, and email address, huh.   I am heading back down to NN Thursday going to hit up the Lee Hall Res. with Sean then.  Ok, yes I know I am being hypocrictal

I live on the same rd as the lakes...They restocked it with crappie,catfish and diff types of sunfish. They said they haven't restocked bass as planned bc they realized there were still good numbers of small bass in the creek beds and said 1st yr after lakes being filled they had successful spawn! Biggest Ive caught out of there is about 3lbs bass since lakes have been refilled. Not bad they are getting bigger each year though! Lots of bass , pike, crappie! We caughtem all year long over there at top lake! I love living down the rd from them! Lower lake is harder to get into bc of the low level. But yes they are loaded with fish not huge ones but the numbers are there and growing! I fish there A LOT since just down rd!  8-)

For some reason I really like it there a lot!  I mainly fish the upper one as well going out to the new d**n. I would love to get a Jon boat in there come spring time!  Thanks for the update!
