Stick Marsh & Farm 13

Whenever you get into bass fishing circles the conversation always swings around to the topic of big bass. In conjunction the question always comes up as to where one might be able to go and have a really good chance at catching a truly big bass. Without exception Florida is at the top of the list of areas, and the top listed lake in that state that is known for truly big bass is without a doubt Stick Marsh/Farm 13. Adjacent to the Stick Marsh/Farm13 are three "sister" lakes and various canals. South of the Marsh is Ansin/Garcia, a lake with its own reputation for good fishing and an excellent amount of above water cover to help protect you on those windy days. Ansin/Garcia is located off of route 512 just 1.5 miles north of route 60. Southwest of the Marsh is Blue Cypress well known for its excellent crappie fishing and scenic beauty. Blue Cypress is the only natural lake of the group and access is off of Blue Cypress road, which runs north off of route 60, just 3 miles east of Yee Haw Junction. West of the Stick Marsh is Kenansville Lake. Access to Kenansville is a bit of a trek so it is the least fished of the Blue Cypress Water Management Area. Access to Kenansville is by way of 12.5 miles of dust, bumps, and ruts known as Kenansville road. There is also access from Blue Cypress Lake, via the M-canal and a transition canal, which is a 30-minute + boat ride. The combination of lakes and the variety of fishing available make for without a doubt the finest and most scenic fishing available anywhere in this great land of ours. Although the Stick Marsh is the place to be 9 out of 10 days, there are times when the wind makes fishing it a bit difficult, remember that there are other options close by. Both the just short of 12-pound hog pictured on the scale above, and the 7-pound lady above are just samples of the possibilities of big fish to be had from this area. When fishing here you always need to be ready because any cast can be the big one. Not every day will bring her out but your chances just don't get any better no matter how far you travel. We are coming into those magic months where there will be one or more caught on the Marsh every day. February, March, April, and May are big bass months in the south and you can be in on the best the south has to offer. Whether booking a trip, or just coming for a few days of fun in the sun give us a call and we will be glad to help in whatever way we can. See you on the water.
