About The Event
This fishout is primarily designed for newer members and is focused on equipment for Stillwater fishing. This will be an opportunity to make new friends and get an understanding of how our fishouts work. We will have a variety of Stillwater equipment: pontoon boats, float tubes, fins, boots, waders, life vests, etc available for you to try. We will cover the basics of safety, equipment, and rigging. Restrooms and picnic tables should be available.
