Went to the Stick Marsh/Farm 13 Saturday to check out what is going on out there. Lake is 3 feet low and Farm 13 has a east west ditch with a roadbed one one side that is only 1.5 feet deep in spots. So be careful.
I went to the back of the Farm and began tossing my Heddon Pop'n Image and immediately it get's blown up on. Few minutes later another blow up. 2 decent sized bass. Well basically this goes on ALL DAY with periods of inactivity. Just awesome to be tearing up bass on topwater not just in the morning but all day. Blue bird skies hot day with light winds at times and the bass are still smashing the bait. What was odd to me is some bass would inhale the whole bait and smash it on top while others would simply slurp the bait in hardly disturbing the water. Some of those where the better quiality fish too.
Anyway, I ended the day at 4:30pm with 28 bass. 27 of them on the Heddon and 1 on a lipless. I missed maybe 4 more bass and one I got to the boat and it was in the 4-5lb class. But she pulled lose.
Biggest of the day this time 3lbs. Caught lots of 2lbers. Funny thing with all this activity not one time did I catch a bass on 2 consecutive casts
Another boater friend I know he and his partner said they caught 50. His biggest was a 8.9lber also. They caught all of theirs on topwater also.
May is an awesome month for this lake as every year in May it is like this I hear.
It started to get windy and on this lake lots of wind is a bad thing so I left. Fish where still hammering the bait in between the waves haha.
