Virginia Beach offers anglers a fantastic shot at weakfish within the Chesapeake Bay and along the Atlantic coast. The Lynnhaven River, Rudee Inlet, and the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel are known hotspots. These areas provide a mix of structure and current that attract weakfish, especially during their spawning season. The peak season is typically from late April through June. A crucial tip for fishing in Virginia Beach is to focus on areas with submerged vegetation, as this provides cover for baitfish and ambush points for weakfish. Try using soft plastic lures that mimic small baitfish or shrimp. Also, be aware of the recreational boating traffic, especially on weekends; plan your trips accordingly. The weakfish in this region are known for their willingness to strike topwater lures early in the morning or late in the evening, providing an exhilarating fishing experience.
