A still, cloudless night on the water, with light air out of the SE and pressure going nowhere. Give reed fringes and open pockets the first hour at Pond Number 10. A long productive spell runs afternoon into evening. Make the first hour count and build on it. Cooler water spreads fish back across the shallows.

Pond Number 10 belongs to York County, Virginia. Salt water lies 1.8 miles off. This is a pocket water of some 5 acres, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. Our York County list holds plenty of bigger water. Nearest place of any size is Williamsburg, 5.7 miles away. Hampton is the closest city, 22 miles away. A county boundary sits nearby, which can matter for local access rules.
Depth here is unknown, so count the lead down before committing. A reservoir gives you a hard edge, a shelf, and not much else. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Fish documented in York County include white perch, blue catfish, bluegill and blueback herring. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. The near bank of this water is often the one people ignore.
The year swings from about 38°F in January to roughly 78°F in July. Winter here means light layers, not lost months. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to be out. The hot months push the fishing to dawn and dusk. The season on this water follows the weather closely. Warm rain lifts activity; cold rain flattens it.
Access is not recorded for this water. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. Pond Number 11 at 0.4 miles is the sensible second choice. Confirm before you fish this water.
