12 Hour Drive

Danny Paxton, of Richmond Virginia, loaded up a rental car and drove 12 hours with his son Chad and friends Bill and Marty to fish for two days at the Stick Marsh. It was a long drive but well worth the effort as these anglers boated nearly a hundred fish in two days. The weather was much nicer here than what they missed in Va. which was reported to be 35 degrees and sleet. All the fish caught were nice quality with a good number of them over five pounds including at least a couple in the eight pound range.





Danny and Bill were in my boat both days and had a real nice time pulling in fish after fish and just relaxing. Two days in two boats, this foursome had no problem finding enough fish to eat up 24 dozen wild shiners. All four knew how to set the hook which helped give them a success rate of better than 60% bite to catch ratio. They had a real good time and I look forward to seeing them again.

The fishing continues to improve as does the weather as of late. The post spawn fish are hungry for shiners and there still seem to be a few fish that have not yet spawned. The outside area of the SW corner of the farm has been doing well if the wind stays calm and the back lot area has produced lots of quality bites. Live bait or artificial does not seem to matter when the bite is on. If you have been wondering if the time is right, I would say yes it is. C’mon out and see for yourself.
