SteveP and Avids stick marsh adventure 2025


fishing user avatarguest reply : 

Beautiful day on the stick marsh/Farm13 today.  temps were in the mid 80's but a nice breeze kept things cool and comfortable.

We boated 18 shad filled bass.  That number will no doubt go up considerably cause ole Avid ran outta gas at about 3:30 but SteveP waned to keep fishing, so I got dropped off at the dock while he went back out for some more.

Lipless crankbaits were the big lures for the day.  Blue/chrome rattletraps, ghost bluegill yo-zuri vibe, and gold aruku shad all brought their share of 3 and 4 lbers to the boat.  Senko's were productive also but the chubbies wanted a moving bait,

My expensive megabait griffon landed me a (drumroll)   catfish.  yup, Ole Uncle Avid been bass fishing since the late 60's but this is his first crankbait  

Many many belly laughs would have made this day enjoyable even without the good fishing.

P.S.  The aching back was helped by the Home Depot type back support, and the post surgical arm is almost good as new - Yeee Hawwwwwwww

fishing user avatarLow_Budget_Hooker reply : 

Avid, how big is that first fish?  


fishing user avatarGeorge Welcome reply : 

Glad to see that the arm held in there to catch that fish. Congrats.


fishing user avatarguest reply : 

Ooooooooooops, my mistake.

The big fish of the day was a dead on 5 1/2 lber that hit the gold aruku shad. (first pic)

Thanks for all the good wishes.

I'm a little sore this morning but considering this was my first outing in about 5 months, the soreness is like a badge of honor.

All props to SteveP.  He really knows the lake, and how to get 'em.

The fish were'nt bunched up anywhere so finding them was a challenge.

As for the photo's, Steve basically said that if I didn't bring a "real" camera both my phone cam and me would join Luca Brazzi "swimming with the fishes"  

This was a fun, memorable day.

Did I mention we were laughing our   off the whole day?

P.S. If you should venture to the Stickmarsh/farm13 don't forget the grape soda  8-)

fishing user avatarJCrzy4Bass reply : 

Glad to see you back in action there Avid.  Looks like you had a blast first time back out.  Nice looking fish.  Looks like that fall crankbait pattern really shined through on that trip.  Soon the soreness will be a thing of the past and you'll be able to have the all day adventures.  Tight lines buddy.
