Stick Marsh & Farm 13

One of these days the weather is going to get perfect, the rain will be gone and the wind will be a mild breeze. In the meantime be sure to have raingear when venturing forth on Florida lakes and windsocks to control the boats drift. Enrique Fondeur and his son Enrique Jr. are visiting from the Dominica Republic and after hearing about the Stick Marsh/Farm 13 from friends just had to wet a line. Although the giant didn't come on board for pictures, they did get this most respectable gal as well as wet heads and windblown cheeks. Today's trip found us working the grass edges and scattered hydrilla along the south end of the center N/S ditch. Senkos worked weightless and down did the trick. The bite was sporadic and best in the AM, but it came often enough to keep everyone on their toes. We did try the SW areas today for a short while but only found some smaller bass. These two areas seem to be the best for the moment as they have for the last several weeks but things could change drastically if we get some cooler dryer weather through. The upcoming week is going to be breezy (15-20) so come prepared. You need some device to control your drift speed, jackets for that early morning run, and don't forget the sunscreen. Although temperatures are cooling down the sun can still get you if you are not prepared. We hope to see you out here soon. If you have any questions or are looking for information about where you might get that big gal, send us an e-mail: we will be glad to help. If you are fishing in the area say hi if you get the chance. So far Enrique is leading in this years contest for big fish. Right now he is leading for the 1st place prize of $2500.00, and the biggest on a Senko which wins a Yamamoto custom 7' bait casting rod. For more information on the contest click here.
