Welcome to Lake Fork. Water level is - 2.72 below full pool after this much needed rain. Surface temps are 69 to 71 degrees. The bass are spawning and the best bite is 2' to 7'. We just had a pink moon a few days back and more are coming in shallow. Best bite for us has been on a V&M Pork Shad and Chop Stick weightless and also using a 3/16th oz. tungsten weight, Texas rigged.

The black bass are in all 3 stages : pre-spawn, Spawn, and post-spawn. The bite is aggressive and fight is fierce. I'm catching fish on streamers and top water.
Another Lake Fork Beauty! The fishing is super for black bass and crappie.
The crappie are in the shallows and hitting small patterns.

Lake Fork
Clear water. Black bass are moving up and down as the weather permits. Secondary points are producing where emergent grass is present. Try streamers in red and white fished 1 to 6 feet deep. Female Black Bass are in pre-spawn in 10’ water, slow retrieved streamers might draw a strike. Crappie are being caught in 1 ft of water in the backs of creeks; try a small, clear clouser.

Black bass are beginning pre-spawn, small males will be active in the backs of coves and creeks near emergent grasses and shallow brush. Larger females will
be suspended near secondary points and boat docks, preparing to move shallow. Try using a suspending pattern and fishing slowly and deliberately. Crappie should be moving shallow as the weather stabilizes and warms. A small, clear/white/silver bead in a size 6 to 8 should work well.

I've had a lot of big fish caught out of my boat. Book your trips for the pre spawn and spawn soon.

7 lbs caught today on lake fork by a 13 year old kid and it's the first bass he has ever caught. Good one to start out with.

Water level is at full pool and surface temps averaging 82 to 84 degrees. The bass are biting pretty good and I really like June herr. We been fishing offshore in 14' to 20' on main lake and secondary points mostly. But fish can be caught in different depths right now. With the surface temps in the lower 80s theirs still a shallow bite also. Drop shot and c- rig has been our best bite. Lot of good grass and the top water can be good on Cloudy days. Thus month will get better for a big fish also offshore.

Water level is at full pool and surface temps are 68 to 71 degrees. The bass are trying to finish spawning now but there are still some on beds. We have been fishing shallow. 2' to 5' has been the best bite. Weightless lightly weighted flukes and Senkos has been best. Shad spawn starting now also. Early morning bite on shallow main lake and secondary hard bottom points. Shallow Shad color cranks baits and swim baits are the ticket on these bass. I have good dates open coming up if you would like a guide. We have caught a few...

    Ronny is a great guide. He knows where the fish are even during windy, low pressure conditions he put us on the fish. He's not real talkative but he knows his business and he's patient with kids. We had a good time.
