WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Lake Anna is a 13,000-acre reservoir in central Virginia, created as the cooling reservoir for the North Anna Nuclear Generating Station, whose warm water discharge creates a unique year-round fishery that rarely freezes even in harsh winters. Lake Anna is nationally recognized for its outstanding striped bass fishery and excellent largemouth bass fishing, drawing anglers from across the Mid-Atlantic who seek the winter striper action that the nuclear hot-water discharge makes possible. Spot Features: Lake Anna is a 13,000-acre reservoir in Louisa, Spotsylvania, and Orange counties, Virginia, created to cool the North Anna Nuclear Generating Station. The warm water discharge from the plant creates a hotspot in the upper lake where fish concentrate year-round, including during cold winter months when other lakes slow down. Striped bass are targeted by trolling or locating schooling fish, largemouth bass with standard techniques in the coves and vegetation. Seasonality: Largemouth bass are the primary year-round sport fish at Lake Anna, with peak activity in spring during the spawning period and in fall. Striped bass and hybrid striped bass school in open water, with the best action in fall and winter when fish are energized by cooler water. The nuclear power plant's warm water discharge keeps fish active year-round and the lake rarely freezes.
