Virginia Kendall... It's been revoked!

Today started off pretty nice. The sun was out and there wasn't a cloud in the sky, too bad because at some points the sun was a bit much. But I was excited and ready to go fishing this afternoon after I got my gear in the car. So I got rolled down the windows and started on my way to Virginia Kendall, which is one of my favorite lakes to fish at. A few years ago they drained it and recently filled it back up after the dug it out and made it look better.
I got out of the car and put a new worm on my ultralight and headed towards the lake. After a few cast I started to walk to the little dock they have and make a few cast there. Once I got near it I saw a sign in the middle of the walk way saying "Fishing is closed" and didn't really understand why. Turns out when they had the lake drained most of the fish had died, who would have thought, and were stocking the lake and don't want anyone to fish till further notice. So I said ok to myself because that makes sense to do but as I read the whole notice it said no one can fish there for the next 3 to 4 YEARS! Reading that made me pretty mad so I walked back to my car and drove away.
Now the place I was so excited to fish at again has failed me for the last time... So much for another Fish Ohio from that lake again. I drove back home and stopped at longwood just to cast since I had put a new worm on and wanted to get use out of it. Still haven't caught anything this season but I haven't been to any promising lakes yet. Guess I'll just have to wait to head out to the camper...
