Mark Richards came to the Marsh to get some quality fishing in and departed with not only his biggest fish of his life so far, but also possibly the smallest. However, prior to catch this one he had already warmed up his arm and shoulder muscles wrestling this lady to the boat. Just to make sure things weren't cooling off to quickly a short time later he followed up with another nice fish. Mark has taken over the lead for first place towards winning the $2500 prize with the above 10.5 pound beauty. He caught it on a #222 Senko. She measured at 26 X 18 and was weighed on a Boga Grip. Not only is he in first place with the biggest fish so far, but he is also leading for the Yamamoto Custom rod for the biggest fish caught on a Senko. We spent the day in the south end of the Farm working with buzz baits, Senkos, and the occasional popper. Obviously the most successful bait was the Senko that caught the above fish. The fish are starting to stage for spawn and although the bulk of the population is bucks, keep in mind that the very next cast could be that fish of a lifetime. Weather was good, water temps were approaching 71, and for most of the day the wind was calm. See you on the water. Say hi if you get the chance. Got a question? Send me an e-mail.
