Florida's Stick Marsh / Farm 13 Fishing

About Stick Marsh Fishing

Created in 1987, the Stick Marsh / Farm 13 Reservoir is synonymous with trophy largemouth bass fishing. This 6,500-acre reservoir near Fellsmere, east of Vero Beach, became one of the hottest bass lakes in the country during the past decade.

FWC biologists predict excellent largemouth bass fishing during the early part of the next decade. During winter-spring 2000, many fishing guides reported the best trophy bass catches in recent years. This summer has been no exception, with a number of anglers catching 50 to 100 bass a day, with many over 10 pounds.

Stick Marsh Bass Fishing Methods

Anglers can locate largemouth bass in or near hydrilla. Plastic worms, spinner baits, crank baits, soft-jerked baits and topwater propeller baits are effective. Wild golden shiners are the top choice for anglers looking to catch a trophy fish.
