TO FELLOW ICE FISHERMAN,
MY FATHER AND I READ AN ARTICLE ON SOUTH POND IN STURBRIDGE IN
THE FISHERMAN WEEKLY. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT THE ARTICLE STATED
THAT YOU COULD CATCH 10-20 LB PIKE AND 8-10 LB BROWNS. SO WE DECIDED
TO HEAD DOWN THERE TO SEE WHAT THIS PLACE WAS ALL ABOUT. WE GOT DOWN
THERE AROUND 7:30 AND THERE WERE ALREADY ABOUT 60 PEOPLE ON THE ICE.
WE THEN PROCEEDED OUT TO FIND A SPOT OUT ON THE ICE. AFTER WE WERE
DONE SETTING UP WE KICKED BACK AND WAITED. SOME TIME AROUND 9:30 OR
SO MY FATHER NOTICED ONE OF HIS POLAR TIP UPS WAS SPINNING BUT, THE
FLAG WAS STILL DOWN. APPARENTLY THE FLAG WAS STILL CAUGHT UNDER THE
PLASTIC LIP OF THE TILT. ANYWAY THE FISH WAS RUNNING CRAZY SO I GRAB
THE LINE AND YANKED. YES IT WAS A GOOD YANK, AS I PROCEED TO PULL IN
THIS THAT SEEMED TO BE A MONSTER. AFTER ABOUT 15 MIN OF PULLING IN
LINE, I COULD SEE THIS MONSTER AND RELIZED THIS MIGHT BE A WALL MOUNT
FOR ME TO HANG. WELL HERE IS THE OUT COME
FISH: LANDLOCK SALMON
SIZE: 27 IN
WT. 7 LBS 11 OZ
HE IS NOW BEING STUFFED FOR THE WALL. SO I WILL GIVE MY
RECOMMENDATION AND SAY IF YOU ARE AN ICE FISHERMAN YOU SHOULD HIT
SOUTH POND BEFORE THE ICE IS OVER......

Lo and Behold, the CLAN is still around and fishing strong. As you
can see from the "Son of King's" note, we are out to catch the big
ones. Even "Pardo", wants to now join the "Clan"
