Monday Sep. 23rd
The pressure was on as I was scheduled to take my mother-in-law Vicki McGee for her first Stick Marsh/ Farm 13 trip. Vicki has some fishing experience mostly with live bait but it has been a little while.
Even in gusty winds Vicki quickly caught on and was casting like a pro. Several storms came through and cut our trip short but Vicki was persistent and did not let the weather deter her. We only caught 13 fish but the quality was good, good job Vicki, no charge.
90 % of our bass were caught on 1/2 oz. S.O.B Rattlin' shads by Bill Dee as gusty winds made fishing soft-plastics very difficult.
Most fish were caught on ditch 13 in the Farm with one caught by the ramp in the Stick Marsh.
Many lures and retrieves will work but if I only had two choices to fish with now, it would definately be the 1/2 oz. Rattlin' Shad by S.O.B. in any color with an orange belly, or a 1/2 oz. carolina-rigged 8" Gambler ribbontail in red shad or junebug.
Go fishing and relax, want pressure ? Take your ma-in-law !!!
Get out there, have fun, hook a loved one !!!
