Had a couple hours to kill this morning so I decided to go try to raise some of my new green friends in the Stick Marsh.. Caught 20-25 but most were dinks.. Only 3 were worth busting out the camera for.. Horny Toads in Junebug rigged weightless and a spinnerbait with the skirt removed and a 4" Pearl White MrWiffelure put on in it's place kept me bent all morning.. Man I just can't seem to break this 4-5lb mark... UGH! Still a blast though, even the small ones hit like a ton of bricks..

Yessir... Not too bad in there but I don't think I'm gonna get my 10 pounder back in there.. I can handle paddling the distance down to 13 but the only problem is I can't launch the yak till safe light and by the time I paddle 4.5 miles one way that magical morning bite will be over..

Not to worry, when ya get on em they bite all day long. Notice I said "when"

Start in the Nursery and head east across the grass.

Not sure how all the gators will take to that Yak though, there are a lot of LARGE ones down on that end. 

leaving for Wisconsin in a couple min. Be back in a week.

Yeah that place is full of lizards and I haven't seen a small one yet lol.. Not so bad in open water though.. Tight canals are a different story.. Couple weeks ago I had one come off the bank and just about end up in my lap.. My only concern would be crossing the levee but I'll probably just drag over at that shelter shack because it looks fairly wide open.. Thanks for the insight!

"Only three"?  I wouldn't complane about catching three five pounders in an entire year up here.
