If there is any golden ticket to finally catching that elusive double digit fish or simply landing your new personal best, I would have to say for most it should include a day fishing with wild shiners in late fall on the Stick Marsh /Farm 13 near Fellsmere. Recent days have given us glorious weather and excellent fishing as the bass are feeding heavily. 100+ fish days with multiple fish > 5lbs. are not uncommon. Artificials are working well too but the live bait really seems to entice the big bites and is a great way to share the thrill of trophy bass fishing with those that are inexperienced as well as the seasoned angler. Choose a day and come out to play, where another big one is Onecastaway.

Bio: Over the past two decades, it has been my pleasure to make the bass fishing dreams of families and anglers all over the world come true when they've come to the world famous Stick Marsh & Farm 13. Over the years, I've caught, and helped my clients catch, over a thousand bass weighing over 10 pounds. I'm grateful for the success my guide service has enjoyed, and I'm now grateful for the opportunity to retire and transfer my business to another incredible fisherman. As of August 3, Dean Herdman, a U.S.C.G. licensed Captain and a knowledgeable and avid bass fisherman, has become the new owner and master guide at Bass Professional Guide Service/HughCrumpler.com. I'm confident that his skills and expertise will help bring new and existing clients the same great fishing experiences for years to come.
