FRANKLIN PARK IN PURCELLVILLE, VIRGINIA - FISHING, SWIMMING, TENNIS and MUCH MORE.
NEVER BEEN FISHING?? GOODNESS, LET'S GO.
A wonderful fishing lake is right here in Purcellville in Loudoun County, Virginia. It's right in FRANKLIN PARK just west of downtown Purcellville. If you don't have a license, you can get one online. Of course, if you need fishing gear and want to save some cash, visit Dicks Sporting Goods at Dulles Town Center Shopping.
There are fish in Franklin Park Lake. I've caught them. I took a family with me one summer afternoon and Jack (2 years old) and Hanna (11 years old) caught lots of Bluegill. You can fish from the banks or from the fishing piers on both sides of the lake. The lake is stocked with Largemouth Bass and Bluegill, perfect fish for an afternoon of adventure for the youngsters.
Careful Jack. That hook is sharp. Hanna can cast almost like a pro.
Catching fish at the lake in Franklin Park is easy from the fishing piers. Dad enjoyed it too.
I use my trusty bamboo fly rod and even a little Bluegill is fun to catch.
