What is this lake?

im always lookin for new fishing spots, and ever since DC300M01 told me about google earth i been finding all sorts of new places…

but ive found this one lake on the border of PA and WV and I cant quite make out what it is or even what its called… been tryin to figure it out for a while.
anyone know what this lake is called and have anyone even seen it in person? Its blue as hell which is wierd…

and yes… i know i spelled Reservoir wrong lol

thats weird when i search it on mapquest it has it when its zoomed out real far… but when you zoom in more then the first set up… the lake dissapears.

no clue

Judging by the color I would guess it is a quarry pond. For some reason quarry ponds often have that teal blue color.

my guess is it isn’t a fishable waterway, generally places like that aren’t disclosed to the public. I know of a few large resevoirs up north that aren’t even on maps.

edit - and taco’s right, the shape of it isn’t smooth or continous, see how it’s all jagged? Quarry pond would be my guess too, another guess would be they don’t want you fishing there lol

hmmm

Here’s a nice lake you could try in Virginia. There’s even a nice barge you can fish off of. If you hear a bunch of sirens go off, it’s nothing to worry about. Just ignore them and keep on fishing… :eek3: :smiley:

I remember 2 very nice huge lakes out near washington that were private and you weren’t allowed to have a boat on em. great fishing though if you like to walk

i think that cheat lake by morgantown wv

ditto.
If it is it’s a beautiful lake. I used to go there often when I was a kid.

lake tittycaca?

maybe if this was south america

its called little blue and its by chester. its a toxic dump supposedly. the water is crystal blue.

that is correct. i forget what plant owns it, but they use it to dump their fly-ash there. i used to ride my bike all through their property. lots of fun spots and the dam is really cool. but that was back in the day.
to the op your not gonna find any fish there…

I think it was water from the nuclear plant 4 or 5 miles away…

cool shit…

after looking at it again,u are correct

Toxic dump in an huge water source? That doesn’t make any sense. The EPA and the DEP would be all over that.

I mean it could be contaminated, but this isn’t an episode of the A-Team or Walker Texas Ranger where some tycoon is dumping the waste from his plant in a lake.

the water is fenced off and nobody draws water off of it…

might as well be toxic… ive seen 2 headed turtles and shit down by there… ive never went in the water though.
