A1/Stump Pond Fishing Report

Stump Is A Hump

I went to A1/Stump Pond this past Tuesday for the first time. With the yak tourney coming up I had to see for myself what all the talk was about. When I arrived at the launch I looked out at all the stumps and I said to myself this is going to be a good day! I remember on one of the posts someone saying you can see a lot of the stumps but you can't see all of them.... SO TRUE. Within 5 minutes of paddling my canoe I got caught on a stump, scared the sh*t out of me... thought I was going in for a swim. Safe to say this happened to me at least 10 times the next couple of hours. It made fishing very uneasy. It turned out that I got skunked but not really worried about it because I was working on a few things. I guess I'm writing this because if you do go out on this pond in a canoe or yak, BE CAREFUL! Unfortunately, I will probably never fish Stump Pond again unless I'm in a boat..

  • Come on back for the tourney there this weekend :)

    You definitely have to be careful but if you take it slow the chances of capsizing in a yak is relatively low.

    That being said, a boat capsized there a couple of years ago and someone drowned. I don't think it was stump related more of a lack of safety (no vest and the person couldn't swim).

  • probably more flips next door at whitehall with the whitecaps on that place. I think someone on this board sank there last year or the year before.

  • Good point but at least I'll feel like I won't flip over!

    I would love to get a count on how many people flipped a boat and took a swim in that place..

  • If you go back in a boat you will get stuck twice as much.
