Lake Fork Guide David Vance Bass Fishing Report April 4th 2019




April is in with a bang!  Another wave of bass have made a major move to shallow water to spawn. I saw a lot of new beds today. The fishing will get even better as April rolls on. The fishing conditions have been good to great at Lake Fork, with many big Bass being caught on a daily basis. Water temps are now in the upper sixty's in most places. Water is clear to stained in some areas due to the recent rain and winds. But if you don't mind a little wind and an occasional storm trying to blow in, the fishing can be tremendous this time of year.

My pattern to fishing for these April Bass hasn't changed too much from March. I am catching a number of bass fishing wacky rigged Trick Worms, best colors have been green pumpkin and Watermelon Candy red, also a Brush Hog and a lizard are working good. Good creeks to try now Rogers Creek, Glade Creek, Long Branch, Wolf Creek and Chaney Branch. If you would like to book a guide trip and get in on the action April, May and June  are going to be the best fishing of the year.

Good Fishing,

Fishing Report from TPWD (Sep. 17)

GOOD. Water cloudy to clear; 85 degrees; 1.09 feet below pool. Starting to see some turnover in the backs of pockets after the last cool spell. Bass are good on the main lake early in the day with topwaters, chatterbaits and square bill crankbaits until the midday sun. Texas rigs and shaky heads are good around docks and timber in 5-7 feet of water. Carolina rigs are fair on big points with fluke type baits and 7 inch worms in 12-17 feet of water. Deep crankbaits are fair over the ends of deep points and road beds. Report by Marc Mitchell, Mitchell's Guide Service.
