I've lived in Hampton Roads most of my life and mostly fishing the Suffolk lakes for years. In the last year or so, I've made a big effort to find bass water closer to my house. Google Earth has been my friend. I've now found about 15 lakes in Portsmouth and Chesapeake I'm catching fish in. Sadly I also found about 20 more lakes where fishing is prohibited Went out to one of the better lakes today and had a amazing day, caught 8 fish, and included in that was 3 different 7lbers and a 8lber (24 inches long). Just curious what unsual or unknown lakes other guys in the area are fishing. I'll start off with 2 lakes I've found:
Dunedin Lake in Dunedin Park in Chesapeake off Taylor Rd
Unnamed lake across from Western Branch Park on Portsmouth Blvd
Coopers Ditch off Mt Pleasant Rd
So what are some of the spots you've found in the area
