http://www.virginialakesresort.comFishing still on fire Monday and Tuesday, but it deteriorated due to the fish coming out of the lake. Everyone was happy as they loaded their limits into their vehicles. Weather took an upturn and we got a second great week of beautiful weather, mornings have been running 48 to 51 degrees. Afternoons have been breezy giving the fish better cover making it easier for the angler also. Wednesday turned up some clouds and we finally got a few drops of rain on Friday. Stocking DFG is still their weekly poundage, and the fishing has been fun and the catching sensational.
