Well we just went right into summer conditions. We had water temperatures are from 75 to 78 degrees. The water remained stained in the upper creeks. The main lake below the 515 bridge was starting to clear up. Numerous Bass are still being caught on main lake points using crankbaits such as the Strike King KVD 1.5 and 2.5 in the chartreuse belly and black top pattern. They wanted an erratic stop and go retrieve. We also found the Carolina rigged Zoom Baby Brush Hog worked well. Watermelon/red color worked the best. Hint/hint; make sure you dye the tails of the Brush Hog chartreuse. The top water bite is really coming on. The rattling Zara Spook seamed to be most fishermen's choice. However, don't forget about my ole favorite choice, the chug bug. Chrome and black worked the best. The Crappie fishermen were doing well this week. The Crappie has started settling to their summer pattern. There are being taken in 20 to 22 feet of water on structure and around both 515 bridges. We found that the very small Crappie jig seemed to work the best. White and silver colored jigs seemed to work the best. The White Bass are everywhere! You can catch a limit in an hour on points using little crankbaits or move into 24 to 30 feet and catch a limit using Joe's flutter Spoon. Chartreuse and chrome worked the best. If you are are in hurry, pick up an Alabama rig and you can catch two or three White Bass at a time. I caution you might get a very large Bass mixed in with the White Bass. Make sure you throw the Alabama rig using braided line. The Catfish fishermen enjoyed another good week. Numerous Catfish are being taken in 12 to 18 foot of water. The bait of choice is still punch bait, however several nice Catfish are being taken on cut bait. You need minnows? Lake Fork Marina has them. You need crankbaits? Lake Fork Marina has them. Bottom line Lake Fork Marina has all your fishing needs from Bass baits to soft drinks including outer apparel. So stop by and check them out while you are at beautiful Lake Fork. We still have a few openings for guided Bass and White Bass trips in June and July.
