Made it over to Myrtle Grove for 2 hours on Saturday afternoon - got the monkey off the back and managed to land one 16" pickerel. When I arrived it was cloudy but the clouds quickly moved out. Water was mid 40s and warmed quickly in the direct sun - but I think that may have triggered an algal bloom as after an hour of the sunlight, the water became discolored. It was pretty clear when I arrived though, and I didn't move any fish after the change in clarity happened.

Dropping an update while I'm thinking about it - summary of my attempts the past few weeks.Went back to the ponds at Myrtle Grove where I tangled with two pickerel in an hour one day last fall. Got skunked.Fished both canals in the back, away from the lakes. Got skunked.Fished a pond in the Piscataway drainage that looked good. Got skunked.Fished several locations in Mattaponi WMA, which is located south of Fredericksburg. Found a really awesome looking oxbow pond, which VDGIF webpage claims has pickerel, bass, and bowfin. Got skunked yet again.Very discouraging thus far.
