![]() To the swivel clip you attach your rig: a swivel plus 18 inches of 6-pound test plus a tiny hook (the hook below is smaller than a dime). In short, you slip on you line an egg sinker with a bead below it. In the few trips I’ve made there this winter, I’ve had great success with a lightweight rod with 6-pound test on it. That said, trout can be found all over the lake (after a stocking), and you can wander anywhere about Lake Cook’s perimeter and cast with ease. Conveniently, there are two fishing platforms that enable long casts to the lake’s center. Trout, loving cool dark waters, tend to hole up in the middle of the lake. The lake appears to get perhaps 15 foot deep. I’ve hauled three young kids there without any trouble. All of which makes Cook Lake and easy-to-fish experience. There’s a small parking lot next to it, and Cameron Run -which is fishable- is across the street. It’s all of four acres, but is stocked in the winter with rainbow trout and has channel catfish. (You can check the Virginia government’s stocking schedule here.) Lake Cook ( directions here), also called Cook Lake, is little lake in Alexandria. ![]() And look me up on the FishBrain app, which I am currently using to learn from other anglers. Please feel free to add comments if you have fishing advice or tips. I am using this website to compile data and information from my fishing experiences in hopes it will help me learn to fish better. There is a minimum of $250 to pick-up fish less than 10” at our Osterburg farm.I am a very amateur fisherman. There is no minimum order for most pick-ups, however if you need to borrow a tank, there is a minimum order of $150 required. ![]() A deposit may be required, and in some situations we will require pre-payment. Pick-ups are available at all of our farms during normal business hours, which vary by farm. We bring buckets that we will fill with water and fish for you and any helpers you can round up to safely transport them from the truck to the body of water you are stocking. We do not provide the man power to stock the trout. As a general rule, plan for us to not go off-road or through water. We never try to make anything more difficult, we just do everything we can to avoid getting stuck. Because of this, we will not leave hard road surfaces if the driver has any doubt about the ground conditions. Our trucks are heavier than most ordinary vehicles. ![]() Additional fees may apply for stockings that are outside of regular business hours (when available), or requesting an order be split among multiple tanks for orders that would otherwise not need it. If you need a specific date and/or time, delivery fees are $2.50/mile (round-trip) unless we are able to combine your delivery with another.ĭeliveries include 30 minutes of stocking time. If your order is $1500 or more in fish, we waive the first 75 miles of delivery.Ĭurrently, if you are flexible with your delivery date and time (you give us the week you are looking to receive trout and we get back with you on what day and time work), delivery fees are $2.50/loaded mile (one way), with a minimum charge of $50. Catfish, seasonally available, can be delivered in PA only.ĭeliveries require a minimum order of $750 worth of fish plus delivery. We deliver trout throughout most of PA, OH, WV, and VA. ![]()
