Arley Sisk, 65-year-old Sidney resident, had a fisherman's dream come true early Monday evening when he landed a 6-3/4 pound bass while casting at Sellers Lake. Sisk said it took him 15 minutes to land the big fish, which measured 24 inches long and 15 inches in girth. He was casting with a flatfish artificial bait when the bass hit in deep water.
