Fish and Useful Baits at Stillman Pond

Bass

When largemouth bass hold tight to cover on Stillman Pond, a compact jig or weedless worm is more useful than repeated open-water casts.

Bluegill and other sunfish in Stillman Pond take worms, crickets and tiny jigs along shade and vegetation.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Stillman Pond

Fish one shoreline slowly before crossing the water on Stillman Pond. Then compare vegetation, shaded shoreline and firm-bottom changes around Stillman Pond before searching open water.

When to Fish Stillman Pond

A sunny spring afternoon can pull Stillman Pond fish toward dark bottom, wood and new vegetation. Summer fish in Stillman Pond may feed shallow at dawn before settling beside cover or deeper structure. Cooling water can bring Stillman Pond fish back to points and banks where bait gathers.
