Lake Fork Fishing Reports
Lake Fork Fishing Report from TPWD (Jan. 25)
FAIR. Water Stained; 56-59 degrees; 5.47 feet below pool. Bass are more active on warmer days in the backs pockets and secondary points going into the pockets. Target the warmest pockets with chatterbaits and spinnerbaits in 2-4 feet of water. Fish are traveling in the creek towards the back on warmer days and moving outwards on cooler days . Those along the creek are best on red squarebill crankbaits in a 1.5-2.5 inch around the edges and big wood 3-6 feet of water. Texas rigs with creature type baits flipped at the big wood on creeks and ditches are good in black and blue colors and June bug in 3-6 feet of water. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Pro. Black bass are beginning the early stages of pre-spawn. Try slow moving suspending streamers and sculpin patterns in 5-7 feet of water. Crappie are deep. Report by Guide Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork Guide Service. Crappie are really good around deep main lake timber in 38-56 feet along creek channels. Fish have been a little more scattered the past week, so it is necessary to cover more water to catch limits. Seeing big white crappie mixed in with lots of smaller black crappie. Minnows will work very well and small soft plastics and hand ties are working well. Best colors for my boat have been purple and chartreuse. Getting good reports of brush pile fish biting as in 20-30 feet. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins’ Guide Service.

Fickle Lake Fork gave some a bonanza and others the big skunk. While it started out pretty cool in the low 50's it quickly cleared off with high bluebird skies and high pressure which made the fishing real...

When you look back to Monday and Tuesday with light winds, sunny weather reaching into the low 80's and fish that were biting today was like a nightmare. Yes fish were caught by a few but the cold front...

It started out at 27 degrees this morning but warmed up to 46 around noon.. I guess that big full moon had the fish full from feeding all night long because there was no early bite at all. And like two weeks...
