Video - Lake Fork Bass Fishing Report - Prespawn Lipless Crankbait Tips - Lipless Crankbait Color Selection




Hello Bass Fishing Fans, during your next fishing trip make sure to fish a lipless crankbait to hook up with some nice pre-spawn largemouth! This is a great reaction bait to use in cold water and often catches giant bass. I like to use 4 different colors when fishing this lure. I like chrome, gold, chartreuse, and red. During the pre-spawn I will usually fish lipless crankbaits very quickly through shallow water in 2-6 ft. On days when the bite slows, try to slow down your retrieve to keep the bait just above bottom. Check out the above video to see more details on which colors I like to choose for the best fish catching results. Thanks for watching and good luck fishing!

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 23)

GOOD. Water Stained; 63 degrees; 0.25 feet below pool. Bass fishing has been slow with some early morning catching near areas with the shad spawn using DieZel chatterbaits. Once bass move off the shore, switch to squarebill crankbaits in 3-5 feet, or Yum dingers and flukes around grass, and frogs in the grass. 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. The crappie fishing on Lake Fork is moving rapidly into the post spawn pattern. Fish are loading up on brush piles, ledges, underwater bridges, road beds, bridges and post spawn trees in 14-25 feet. The fish are hungry after the spawn and they will bite just about anything you out in front of them. We are having great luck with small hand tied jigs but minnows and soft plastics will also work for the next few months until water temps heat way up. Seeing a lot of small fish this year mixed in so some days you will catch and release a lot of short fish. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
