We have a WINNER!  Congradulations, John M of Lansing, MI!

Last week, we drew a winner for our latest giveaway, the Orvis Streamline Fly Rod and Reel Combo Package -- a guy that goes by JohnM around here.  We sent him and email and asked him for his address so we could send him his goods and, lo and behold, he lives right here in Lansing, Michigan, right nearby the hometown of Stillwater Fishing Online!  So, naturally, we had to meet him. We called him up and he told us that he was literally just about to leave for a two week vacation where he was going to be fishing some of the best rivers in our fair state.  What perfect timing to get new, free gear!  We set up a time and place and had our first chance to meet, face to face, one of our winners.  We talked secret fishing spots, what kind of gear we've been using this year, and plans for the rest of the season.  He told us that he was looking forward to trying out his new rod on his trip.  John's a great guy, the consummate Stillwater Fisherman, and we wish him the best of luck on his amazing trip this week!

Read more about the giveaway itself below -- remember, it's already given away.  But stay tuned -- another Stillwater Giveaway is coming!

We're having an anniversary, and you are all invited!.

Yes, kids, it's true. Thanks to the fine folks at Orvis, we have a fantastic way to celebrate Stillwater Fishing's one year anniversary. We're giving away one Streamline Fly Rod and Reel combo pack to one lucky Stillwater Fishing member! Holy Smokes! This is a complete fly-fishing rod and reel combo, perfect for trout, bass or panfish. It comes with Orvis Streamline 865-4 Mid-Flex rod. This 8'6" 5-weight, 4-piece rod has a reverse half-wells grip, and is great for trout, bass, or panfish. And, that's not all! This pack also comes complete with a Clearwater III reel, too! And, if that we're enough, Orvis is also throwing in 150 yards of 30-lb. Dacron backing, a 90' weight-forward 5 line, and a 9' 2x leader. And, to top it off, it comes with a rod and reel carrying case to boot! This fly rod and reel combo makes the perfect gift for the beginning angler, or to use as a second or third rod to poke around with. This is a great deal, as this pack retails at $198.00! Man, you gotta love Orvis for hooking you guys up with this!
