Hi,
I also live in VA, but in the SW part. Have done much fishing in this local area over the last 30 yrs.
There is a lake in Bath County. If it's not too far from you, it would be well worth your effort to fish it. Bass fishing is awesome! Both Largemouth and Smallmouth.
Here is a link about Lake Moo Maw:

Good fishing, and best of luck.
