"When you have a hard time getting the stringer into the boat, you know you've had a good day of fishing," Kansas City Star (Joe Farkas quote)
"Farkas knew he could have made that stringer even heavier if he had wanted a real challenge. Resting in the cooler was another 28-pound striper that was caught the day before. The three fish, all caught by Farkas' guide clients last week, were headed for the taxidermy shop, destined to become a legacy of Beaver Lake's outstanding striper fishing."- Kansas City Star
"At some lakes, such two-day catches would have been earth-shaking news. Not at Beaver. There, such fish barely raise an eyebrow. Farkas' goal? To get his customers hooked up with a striper like the 45-pounder he caught in 1991."- Kansas City Star
"Twenty-pound fish are not uncommon on Beaver," avows Farkas, who spends 200 days guiding on the lake each year. In fact, most veteran fisherman want to catch a striper weighing 30 pounds or more. My personal best is a 45-pounder, which hit a live shad fished below a balloon rig in late-October."-Southern Outdoors
