Stick Marsh-Farm 13 - Freshwater Fishing Report
Submitted by George, Imagination Bassin Guide Services
Date Fished: 3/20/03
Water Temperature: 76
Water Clarity: 1 foot
Our last four trips have been a mixed bag of success with the trip yesterday being the best.
The first three of the four trips were on the slower side with an average of 25 to 30 fish per day. The bass were weighing in the 2-4 pound range, and big fish for the three trips was 7 pounds. This was a substantial drop from previous trips.
The bait that was working was still plastic, (Senkos), and the color needed to be dark. One of the trips did begin in the South end of Farm 13 with Chug Bugs and they accounted for 9 fish, but after the top water that was the end of the bite down there. The balance of that trip and both days of the the others was spent on the Marsh. There were lots of fish being marked, but they spent a lot of time suspended and less biting.
Yesterday the bite resumed its normal pace on the Marsh and we boated 69 bass with one over 8.5, and several over 5. Again the bait that worked best, (although we did try others), was the C-rigged Senko in any of the dark colors. Keeping the bait slow was the key and with the wind we had to have two socks out.
See you out there. Say hi if you get the chance.
PS: if you are looking to do something last minute we do have quite a few openings so give us a call.
