I would like to suggest a fresh water tourney at Lone Star Lakes in Suffolk. Say, April/May timeframe? Information below, but in particular, Lone Star has never allowed boats with motors, except for electric. Say a $10 entry (after I figure out lake entry cost, if there is enough interest?) Bring a new guy and he fishes for free?

Ray - Thoughts?

Lone Star Lakes

Virginia Department of Game & Inland Fisheries Lone Star Lakes The Lone Star Lakes are a series of 12 lakes (some interconnected) varying in size from three to 50 acres. The total acreage is 490. These lakes were excavated for marl and later sold to the City of Suffolk for water supply and a public park. The park contains 1,172 acres and offers picnicking and hiking, as well as an archery range and horseback riding trails. There are two new ramps, one at Butler Tract and the other at Crane Lake, providing boat access to these outstanding fishing waters. The lakes vary in characteristics. One is brackish, some are dark-stained, while others very clear. Some are deep while others are very shallow. Among the best is Crane Lake, which opens into Chuckatuck Creek.

I'll try to make a decision when it gets closer to may, Im leaning more into the lakes around the peninsula...
