Soft grey light all day today, with a helpful ripple pushed from the NW with pressure climbing. The productive water at Pond Number 11 will be around the margins and the shelf beyond them. A long productive spell runs afternoon into evening. A careful, quiet approach will out-fish a busy one.

Look for Pond Number 11 in York County, Virginia. This is dry hill ground. The water measures roughly 23 acres, so nothing here is far from anything else. 5.5 miles away sits Williamsburg, the nearest town. Beyond it, Gloucester Point at 6.2 miles and Gloucester Courthouse at 11 miles. A border sits close enough to be relevant to the paperwork.
No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. A reservoir gives you a hard edge, a shelf, and not much else. Built water gives depth close in, which suits a bank angler. Survey and observation records for York County include white perch, blue catfish, bluegill and blueback herring. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. The shape of this water rewards a slow walk along one bank.
The warmest month averages 78°F, the coldest about 38°F. Cooler months are the productive ones on most of this water. Heat pushes fish deep from June onwards, so start early. Spring and autumn carry the year; summer squeezes it into the ends of the day. On this water the same rules apply, with local timing.
Our records carry no access rule either way. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Rules differ from one water to the next round here. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Pond Number 10, 0.4 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. What applies at this water may have changed since it was mapped.
