Had doctors appointment today, then my buddy Henry calls me and asks if Im going to work,,, I knew what he wanted to do so I instantly got sick :oops: When I got home he was waiting for me with his canoe, so I ran in the back yard and grabbed mine, threw it in his truck and we were off,,I asked him what lake or pond,, he said Stillwater,,as soon as we got there I saw what I was going to do,, he stayed AT FIRST along the bank pitching jigs to wood,, I rowed, rowed my canoe to the northern end,, as I was rowing I heard him giggle a few times,, I knew he was catching fish,, so he opens his big mouth and asks for a friendly tourny,, I scream back at him and told him to save his biggest one,, we always challenge eachother,, so I get half way up and notice the vegetation,, Uh OH,, Henrys in trouble :twisted: I first worked the area with a frog,, yes it was a Spro,, after around the 10th cast,, this fish let me know I was in the right area,, I missed her,, My blood is now pumping,, my big gun comes out,, I stand up and start,, You know it FLIPPIN,, my first flip, my bait gets destroyed on the fall,I found them with the lillys and the bladderwort met, I hear Henry screaming at me saying He didnt know I had a flippin stick,,all of a sudden my stomach decides it wasnt feeling good,,I pull off to the shore and make my way till I found these 2 rocks that suited me, so after I was done I come walking back through the woods putting on my shoe, because I used a sock,,Henry is laughing at me,, so he starts flipping where I was,, 8ft to 10ft of water was the ticket,, we boated some bruisers, my biggest was 5.2lbs on a Rapala scale,, Henrys was 4.6lbs,, all in all it was a great day,, we caught 8 fish over 3lbs,, and Henry got a few with a jig but they were only 2lbers,, Stillwater could become 1 of my favorite small ponds :P

Hi flippy, Good for you man! I've posted before that Stillwater gets little pressure because gas motors aren't allowed. Just electric and paddle. Lots of good bass waters there. SeaDog1

It's stocked trout that make largemouth bass grow so big. And Stillwater Pond has them. I'm glad that you found the fish there, Jim.
