| Nice one , especially for skinny water. I bet the lack of rain recently has the fish gathered up in some of the deeper holes.

Nice Catch!
Believe it or not, my dad used to catch tons of bass that big and bigger up blackwater south of deaton's bridge. You could actually take a smaller boat all the way up the river before it re-routed out through the swamp after hurricane Ivan. We were members of Panhandle Hunting Club and the back side of our property line was the river. Most of that club was taken over by the Hutton Game Reserve and the State Prison.

If you fish the creeks in that area hard, fish that size are really happen on a regular basis. We caught 1 off coldwater creek that was 7lbs 9oz.

  These fish all came out of a smaller creek than that on the lower end of blackwater river. The largest was 6.9 in the right pic. The fish on the left side left pic was about 3.5

| that is a nice bass, you can thank them boys fron the northwest florida open bass tourney. the organizner lives in milton and was tired of driving too catch bass so most of there tourneys go out of blackwater they collect fish from escambia and yellow and turn them loose on blackwater. if your a miltonite thats good.

Blackwater has produced some quality fish over the last few years. An 11# was caught back in the spring. That thing was impressive. None the less, you guys have some great bass there. Congrats!!!

The fish on the left side left pic was about 3.5 Those are some stud bass. But I was fishing in the way upper end of blackwater, no triton bass boats can go there safely. I was wade fishing. I do see alot of canoes though.

I know exactly where you were. I take my 14ft kennedy craft up there all the time. As for the triton, the creek i was in when i caught those fish is actually narrower than the upper river, but there is more depth. Nice catch though. If your interested, be glad to take ya for a run up north blackwater for some action.

Can you get to Coldwater Creek from Carpenter's Park and if you can, how far up the river is it?

Can you get to Coldwater Creek from Carpenter's Park and if you can, how far up the river is it?Yes....depending on the boat, you can make it in about 20 minutes or so. Make sure batteries are charged. You will need it to pull.

To make it up coldwater you need a boat without tilt trim so the motor will kick up. be careful when entering coldwater from blackwater because there are several large stumps. After that, we run my 25 hp. full throttle.
