Easy Days
with Capt.
Terry Lamielle
With only a little more
than 6500 acres of water to fish, the Stickmarsh is like no other. It has
been rated as one of the top 10 lakes to fish in the United States for not
only it's consistent numbers of Largemouth Bass but also a chance and a good
chance at that, to catch a fish in and over the 10 LB. size that so many
freshwater anglers spend a lifetime to accomplish.
There are two areas in this waterway that sit side by side. The
northern side is what is called the STICKMARSH. This area holds many
submerged stumps from what used to be old orange groves and willow trees.
With an average water depth of 5-6 ft. the only structure these fish relate
to is the stumps. Vegetation is thin but can be found in the area and is
something to target when found. The southern end of the waters is called
FARM 13 . As in it's name it once was a farming area for growing radish
plants and other vegetables. This part of the impoundment has lots to offer
for fishing. Some stumps mostly in the southern most area and has thick
Hydrilla to fish in and around. It also has old submerged road beds that
hold fish as well.
Heavy tackle is recommended to fish this waterway because of the
structure. Anything from 12 LB. test to 20 LB. test line will do as also the
many braided lines that are on the market. The normal lures that work on any
other freshwater lake will work at the impoundment.
For the naturist in all of us Alligators swim freely about these
waters and can be seen sunning on the banks when the weather gets cool. Many
birds find these waters home as well. Marsh Osprey's, White Egrets, Blue
Herons and in the wintertime White Pelicans make themselves home for all to
see.
