With the mass adoption of social media our definition of "news" and how we consume it has changed drastically over the past 5 years. Here at LakeForkTexas.com, we believe the future of news will leverage "citizen journalism" where local citizens play an active role in collecting, reporting, analyzing, and disseminating news and information. Many talented area residents are already publishing news through their blogs and social media posts but are limited by their inability reach the masses.


Leveraging our expertise, traffic, technology and social media channels, we can instantly reach tens-of-thousands of residents, weekenders and visitors interested in the Lake Fork area news. We are always interested in connecting with local citizens with a flair for writing to contribute to our lakeforktexas.com news and events. Each article will include your picture, bio and link to your site. This can generate great visibility for your business or help establish credibility as a citizen journalist while also contributing positively to the lake community.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Jul. 9)

GOOD. Water Stained; 82 degrees; 0.23 feet above pool. Fork : Top waters early around pond weed and grass with frogs and poppers still working . Mid morning chatter baits on the outside edge of grass in 3-5 ft is good as well as shaky heads . Best bite is Carolina rigs off shore on points , road beds and humps in 12-25 ft . Big worms and flukes are good . Deep Cranks are good over the same area when the fish are suspending 19-23 ft . Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Lily fields are filling in, hydrilla and milfoil are reaching for the surface. Fish this type of cover at mid day when bass are seeking cover. Frog patterns are working in the shallow vegetation early and late. Small fish patterns like a dock knocker are producing bass and crappie shallow near grass. Large bream have moved shallow, wooly buggers are producing good fish. Channel catfish are cruising 2-4 feet biting clousers. Report by Guide Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork Guide Service. Lake Fork crappie fishing has been super up and down this past week. The fish are stacked up on brush piles, lay downs, tire reefs and some trees. The bite is the tricky part. Some days the bite is good and the bigger fish show up. Some days the bite is just off and the short fish show up. Seems like the bite may be better on days we have a little breeze. If the winds are calm the bite is very slow. Minnows will get some bites but small 1/32nd ounce hand tied jigs with small bodies and tails are working well on fish that don’t want to bite. Best depths have been 18-13ft with most fish suspended on trees and loaded in the brush. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
