Really?  All month?  Is the most fish for one day or the entire month?

Missed the announcement of the tournament, but fished at Lake Ridge Marina yesterday.  Water was dirty, but had cooled down significantly.  I was using a 1wt (6ft) that I had bought on EBay for $45 with a cut down foam ant and I'd bet that I caught 75-100 bluegills in 3 hours, and some pretty big ones.   1wt rod makes even a small bluegill a pretty good fight.  So, one spot for someone to go get the most fish prize.  Where else would others recommend?

For last year's tournament, which lasted a weekend (not a month), I launched from Occoquan Regional Park and fished up and down the river bank between the park and the Ox Road Bridge (123).  Also good to try the pylons among the marina slips across the river from the Park.
