Lake Fork Report July 2019




Just a few quick notes to help some of you coming out to Lake Fork.

As of this post the water level on Lake Fork is 402.80 and the water temperature is around 84-85 degrees. 

These are the baits I am throwing throughout the day.

BIG WORM - 1/2 oz Tungsten weight, #4 or #5 rigging hook

CAROLINA RIG 1 oz bullet weight 5' leader #3 rigging hook
(Mardi Gras, Watermelon Magic) Fluke - Make sure to dip the tail in chartreuse.

DROP SHOT - 5/16 oz weight with a 15 inch leader #2 Mosquito hook made by owner 4 inch finesse worm (Tomato, Plum)

WEIGHTLESS FLUKE #3 rigging hook (Disco Violet, Green, White)

BIG JOE SPAITS FLUTTER SPOON 6"

I am starting out my mornings in about 15 feet of water on main lake points, humps & road beds. After 9:00 am, I am running out deeper 20 - 26 feet. If you can find these fish on the bottom you can make them eat. If these fish are suspended you can still catch them, it's just harder to do.

For the suspended fish I am throwing a Big Joe Spaits Flutter Spoon and a weightless fluke using a countdown method.

After 4:30 pm or so these fish are setting back up like they are first thing in the morning and are not as suspended.

I still have days open for the end of July and beginning of August.and would love to have y'all out. I hope the information can help some of you catch a few fish and to see you on Lake Fork!

Thanks, Eric Wright 972 757 7947

Fishing Report from TPWD (Sep. 10)

GOOD. Water cloudy to clear; 85-90 degrees; 0.91 feet below pool. Early and late bass topwater bite around grasslines and isolated cover on main lake and secondary points. Try frog and mouse patterns for topwater. Bass are beginning to school, a hard-bodied popper should work well. Bream are shallow, try small hoppers. Report by Guide Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork Guide Service.
