Stick Marsh & Farm 13

Water clarity and temperature has been in constant flux on the Marsh with the winds and rain of late, but the fishing has remained good to excellent. We have had to make adjustments of location for some of the days but for the most part we are still finding good fishing in the south end of the Farm. Scott and I worked the south end of the Farm with rattle traps 3 days ago and had 32 bass in a 1/2 day. Yesterday, with Eric Fuller and Kent How from Atlanta, I spent the morning in the south end of the Farm and the afternoon on the flat off the C54 canal. Rattle traps worked in the morning and Senkos in the wood worked in the afternoon for a total of 32. Big fish for the day was about 6 pounds. Storms and wind moved us out of the Farm and up to the north end, and an impending T-storm kicked us off the lake a bit early. Keeping an eye on weather is part of our job for safety's sake, and we got off not a minute too soon. The storm was a real beaut. Today Scott had John Hazlett and JB out for a 1/2 day. It was windy but thanks to all the rain the water was flowing at a set of pipes and the fish were drawn to activity due to the current. Twenty-two fish by quitting time answered the call of the plastics and made for a pretty good morning irregardless of the 20 plus MPH winds. The front has just about moved out which means the weekend should bring good weather and light winds. The forecast is for 5-10 tomorrow and 5 on Sunday. Hope to see you out there. Bring the rattle traps and the Senkos and catch a big one. Say hi if you get the chance.
