{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Pickerel - Seeking spots/tips

Myrtle Grove is an interesting little gem. I run my bird dog there from time to time and he's pointed some VERY rare wild Maryland quail and we even bagged a pair of timberdoodles on their migration a few years back. Lots of game and wildlife out there for being so in-the-middle-of-it-all. I once spooked a massive 8-point buck bedding down for a nap one afternoon. 

They stock the pond in the fall and spring with trout, which brings out the bait chuckers to line the banks. I've even seen guys in belly boats out there before. Perhaps there are chain pickerel big enough to make a meal out of MD stockers. 

The main draw to Myrtle Grove, however, is the gun and archery ranges. I'm fairly certain it's the closest public outdoor range to DC. Again, a nice little gem if you're in the LaPlata/Fort Washington area.
