Water Clarity: 6 inches
Sunday Sep. 22
Bob Wilisch, a Merrill Lynch man from Tallahassee, Fl fished the Stick Marsh /Farm 13 for the first time with me Sunday. Bob brought his boat down for a week but wanted to see where he could run safely and fish for the week
I showed Bob the way through the Stick Marsh and some areas to fish there but we mostly fished the farm ditches due to wind in excess of 20 mph, we caught fish evenly on carolina- rigs and rattletraps. Bob had never fished a c-rig but quickly adapted, Bob and I caught 31 fish by 1pm . Bob agreed without Power Pro braided line many of the c-rig fish would never have been felt in the wind.
Bob and I c-rigged with a 1/2 oz. of weight, 24-30" leaders to 3/0 Gamakatsu superline hooks and 8" red shad Gambler ribbontails.Pinnacle Limited Edition Rods & Reels did the rest.
My wife took my friend Bart out Sunday and caught 13 fish in the SW corner of Farm 13 on topwater before the whitecaps forced their Gheenoe back to the ramp.
Monday I saw Bob out again, he was managing to catch a few in each of his new-found honey holes, nice work Bob !!!
