Customer Comments

"Thanks for the great fishing trip last week! I?ve fished Lake Fork over 10 times with guides over the past few years and that was hands down the best trip that I?ve had. 25 quality fish in 100+ degree heat is pretty impressive! Your knowledge of the lake and use of different techniques blew my mind."

"I just wanted to thank you for an incredible day at Fork! My customer and I both had a trip we'll never forget! I honestly didn't expect much with the heat, but you put us on some great fish! I've taken customers on several guided trips and I've been disappointed more times than not; this having little to do with the fish we catch. Most guides, like yourself, prefer you to use their tackle and boat. The boat is normally too small for 3 people to fish comfortably, and then you're stuck with old rod and reels and old line. When I pulled up to the launch and saw your new Skeeter ZX225, your pro gear, and your tackle collection? I knew I picked the right guide! "

"Hey man, I just wanted to say THANK YOU. My son has shown the picture of his 8lber to EVERYONE. Alot of people have said they have fished their whole lifes and never boated a fish that big and he caught it on his first trip to Lake Fork. You have a gift for teaching and a great way with kids. That fish made his whole summer. We cant wait to get back. "

"My wife and I wanted to thank you for a great trip and your hard work. Tina has never really enjoyed fishing, probally because I dont have the patients to help her. She had the best fishing trip she'd ever had last week with you on Fork. Thanks for making her day special. I didnt even care if I caught a single fish, I just wanted her to have a good time. She has gone with me a few times now. That was an incredible day, and I learned a ton."

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 14)

GOOD. Water Stained; 73 degrees; 0.40 feet above pool. Bass are fair on points with and without spawning shad early morning. When there is wind it’s better. Frog bite is fair in shallow grass and pond weed. Bass are staging in 5-10 feet of water on secondary points hitting Carolina rigs, and XD 5-6. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Black bass are post spawn and the top water bite is on! Frog patterns are working in the shallow vegetation. The crappie are moving shallow, small clousers are producing well. 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. Crappie fishing is settling into the post spawn and summer patterns we should see for the next few months. We are seeing incredible numbers of small black crappie right now loading up on brush piles, lay downs, bridges and docks. The larger black crappie are a little hard to find but you can find some nice groups of them or pick a few out of the smaller fish. The bigger white crappie are beginning to load on the summer pattern trees. We have a tremendous amount of fry covering up a lot of those trees and making it very hard to see those bigger white crappie on forward facing sonar or for them to see your bait. You can find fish in 10-30 feet of water and some may only be 2 feet under the surface or right on the bottom. Minnows and any colored jigs are both producing extremely well. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
