Five bass over ten pounds each; another four over eight pounds each; a total of more than thirty and close to forty bass; top five bass weighted 56.25 lbs; top ten bass weighted over 113 pounds; three men fishing about seven hours in Stick Marsh on March 15, 2007. All men were in the same boat. Pretty good day? It does not get much better than that!!
The biologists have said there are more bass than ever before in Stick Marsh and Farm 13. The biologists have said the bass are larger than ever before. Today's fishing by Mark Goss, Stanley Goss and guest Ross with Hugh Crumpler as guide is just a small proof the biologiest know what they are talking about.
When Mark and crew arrived at the lake Mark asked me how the fishing was. I told him it had been slow. On the way to our first (and only) fishing hole I remarked that it was going to be a good day and the bass were going to bite. Why? The alligators were easily seen, the wildlife was moving and it just felt like it.
In my most recent report previous to this one I mentioned that there were big bass locations that no one had fished in a couple of years. Well, I've checked them out from time to time and not found the bass there. Today, conditions were pretty good for one of those locations. The weather was favorable anywhere we could have gone. The water has had a chance to clear. The wind was from the Southeast. We were not burdened by lots of heavy clothing. We were burdened by running out of bait early and by missing some bass in the eight pound plus range. However, Mark, Stan, and Ross had no complaints what so ever!
There isn't much more I can say that the photos and captions can not say better! Only, that YOU could be next! Give Hugh Crumpler a call 321-722-3134 or drop Hugh an e-mail Hugh@HughCrumpler.com.
