I will be heading to Anna around end of August so I'd be interested in knowing that as well.

Lake Anna can be a lot of fun or she can be heartbreaking.

Right now it's tough to fish with all of the boat traffic in the middle and upper regions of Anna, the recent rains that have come has cooled the upper part of the old Anna river they will be in the 10 to 15 foot range, the water is stained and the fish spook easily.

If you are planning a trip anytime soon, the mornings and evenings are going to be your best bet, the lower part of the lake will hold some pretty good fishing but you have to find them, the dissolved o2 layers are going to be pretty thick so they have a lot of room to get around and feel comfortable.

Dukes creek, Sturgeons Creek, Blount Cove, Valentine Cove, Levy Creek are some of the better fishing areas this time of year for the Mid to lower part of the lake to fish.

Dukes creek will most likely provide the better action, shad travel that area all the way out to the flat before they disperse, the rocky points will be some of the better fishing in the late morning hours.

If you do go fishing there, I would suggest going to the state park and launch from there, it might be a long run to the bottom of the lake from there but if you stop by the office they usually have topo maps that they give away from time to time, nice ones too.

Hope that helps .

Good luck and be safe !!!
