Thompson Lake

closed to stock

G. Richard Thompson Lake in Fauquier County is closed through Oct. 1 to all public fishing in an attempt to restock.

Virginia Game Commission officials closed the lake Tuesday.

According to biologist Ed Steinkoenig, the lake had been stocked with bluegill and largemouth bass but it has never maintained a balanced population. The restocking project is expected to restore some balance and allow the sport fishery to maintain that balance through natural reproduction.

Thompson Lake is located between Markham and Paris on Va. 688.
