But the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries has been experiencing bugs in getting the new system on line. Maybe before long, I have been told. If we are lucky, a bill will be passed in the 2000 General Assembly that will modernize the entire license selling structure. Several lakes in Virginia have been restored to full pool while others remain alarmingly low. Kerr Lake has reached 300 feet elevation, which means it is normal.
All ramps now are open.
Downstream Gaston Lake is so high many docks are underwater and there is floating debris. It is almost as bad at Lake Chesdin. Smith Mountain Lake is about normal. In fact, it is in beautiful shape. Lake Moomaw is more than 20 feet below full pool.
