Lake Fork Angler Results From February 10




Sure, wish we had more water, but it really did not affect the fishing today for the "haves". As opposed to the have-nots. Generally, the have nots are mostly the co-anglers and that depends on how successful their boaters are. For mid-February the weather was pretty darn good with some cloud cover starting at about 40 and rising to 70 by quitting time at 3 PM.  By the results it looks like the big girls are starting to show up. Water temps in the high 40's.

 

All fish 10" and up are keepers. Only the best 5 count.

 

Boaters

  1. First Place went to Don Overstreet of Sulphur Springs with 5 bass for 21.66 LB with a 5.49 lunker.
  2. Second Place went to Dennis Bubinas of Lake Fork with 7 bass for 20.43 with a 7.41 lunker.
  3. Third Place went to Randy Bunch of Lake Fork 4 bass for 17.44 LB. which is the 7.81 LB boater lunker.
  4. Fourth Place went to Dusty Newton of Van (with his first win) of 3 bass for 15.71 LB with a 7.41 lunker.
  5. Fifth Place went to Tim Gold of Mineola with 3 bass for 9.74 LB with a 4.31 lunker.

 

Co-Anglers

  1. First Place went to Tom Whitrock of Lake Fork with 2 bass for 6.73 LB with a 5.28 LB. is the co-angler lunker.
  2. Second Place went to Alf Tuggle of Scroggins with 2 bass for 5.23 LB. with a 3.78 LB lunker.
  3. third Place went to Scott Powell of Lake Fork with 3 bass for 4.67 LB with a 2.13 LB lunker.
  4. Fourth Place went to Rick Wright of Rowlett with 1 bass for 3.87 LB.
  5. Fifth Place went to Jackie Price of Alba with 1 bass for 2.88 LB.

 

So, we thought 17 caught the last time was really bad. This week we managed 49 keepers with only 7 skunks.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Nov. 29)

GOOD. Water Stained; 50 degrees; 2.26 feet below pool. Bass fishing has slowed after the recent cold fronts and you need to be very slow in your approach. Squarebill crankbaits and rattletraps are fair in 3-5 feet of water along the edge of grass. Texas rigs and Carolina rigs are best along the edge of grass as well in 3-7 feet of water. Suspending jerkbaits is starting to work as the water temperatures decline. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Fall weather has arrived so fish will start to prepare for cold weather. Black bass are moving deep for the winter. Cast clousers, ned rigs, and large worm patterns in flooded tree tops near creeks and deep water ledges. Crappie are moving out to the open water in 30 plus feet of water biting small jig patterns. Report by Guide Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork Guide Service. The crappie fishing on Lake Fork continues to be as good as ever. Look for fish in big numbers moving as they head toward the deep water winter pattern. Look for timber along main lake creek channels in 28-40 feet right now for numbers of fish and some big fish mixed in. Minnows will work well but they are biting small hand tied jigs and larger plastic baits as well now that the surface water temps have dropped. We are still seeing some fish on brush and lay downs from time to time. Bridged have been up and down the last few weeks but they can be worth checking out for numbers of black crappie. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
