Stick Marsh/Farm 13 - Turned out to be a good weekend

[George_Welcome]

On again - whoops off again best describes Tom Findlay's big bass. She picked up a 5" watermelon Senko as it swept by a piece of wood and the fight was on, right to the boats edge, but it seemed something was missing! That something caused Tom to miss his fish of a lifetime - the adrenaline rushed when the rod doubled over and the hookset was forgotten. How many times this happens: don't forget to "set the hook". Tom and his daughter Rebecca met me at the ramp for a 1/2 AM trip. With a mix of shiners and artificial bait we made a decent morning of it fishing the back lot of the Marsh.
Scott headed south with Ryan Edwards and his Dad. Ryan is quite the fisherman and has had many trips to the Marsh and other area lakes with us, with a personal best to date of a bass that was 10 pounds 3 ounces. This trip would get him a multitude of good size fish but none that would exceed his "biggun".

Seven pounds was the tops for the day but the numbers caught and several just like this one kept the smiles on this youngster all day long.

This weekend was definitely one to remember. The wind chased the waves into whitecaps and then ebbed, but throughout most of the days the fish kept biting through most of it. Several moves had to be made to adjust for wind direction, but hey that's part of fishing. The cold fronts can be a pain, but with some adjustment they can be for the most part, handled without too much of a problem.
See you on the water. We have some opening so give us a call!
Remember, to get a picture like the one below you need to be here.
