Hello bass fisherman! Right now Lake Fork is fishing better since we have had a few warmer days and will continue to have some sunny warmer weather soon which should stabilize the water temperatures into the high 50s and make the fish even more active as they will move up onto the spawning flats to feed up for the spawn. With the water temperatures currently in the mid 50's on much of the lake I recommend slowly dragging a 3/8 ounce jig or throwing a medium diving flat-sided crankbait in 6-12' creek channels and drains on shallow flats or other north wind protected pockets. I recommend focusing on the back 1/2 of the creeks on the northern 1/2 of Lake Fork. Once the water warms into the high 50s you can expect to start catching bass on a variety of baits in 3 to 6 feet. I prefer to stick with either a chatterbait, squarebill crankbait or a lipless crankbait anywhere that I find grass. Look for Coots on the water, the groups of small black birds as they relate to grass. You are most certain to be around some submerged grass growth which will attract many bass over the next couple months. Watch the video below to see some predominant pre-spawn patterns and fishing locations in Glade Creek. Thanks for watching and be safe on the water.
