I did some exploring on Mattawoman Creek today. I parked near the rte 225 and 224 intersection and fished up probably a half mile or so. There's a YouTube video of someone catching a pickerel right at that bridge, which is in the middle of a long, deep pool.
I was curious about upstream from that big pool and initially it looked good but around the power line crossing and upstream most of the pools seemed too shallow and fast moving. I didn't move any fish. Farther up it may turn back into more of a swamp and that would be a good thing but I didn't get far enough to confirm.
Talked to some guys back at the lot who said they catch a ton of pickerel there, so it may have been an off day or a poor angler effort on my part. They started talking about other places they catch pickerel and from what I can tell, they are in most ponds and all Potomac tributaries from Mattawoman south.
