Lake Fork is in great shape and the bass fishing reflects that. Numerous large fish (7 lbs+) have been caught in the last few weeks. The bass are in post spawn so they're hungry and aggressive.

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

Welcome to Lake Fork. Water level is - 2.97 below full pool and surface temps are 61 to 65 degrees. It has been a very mild Winter and we have bass in all different depths right now. There are a few fish already getting on beds mostly on Northern end. Best bite has been in 3' to 8'. Secondary points, shallower creek channels and midway to back of pockets p producing. Senkos, shaky heads jerk baits and chicken rig with creature baits working pretty good. It's about to bust loose soon here on the goat lake. There was a 13.68 Share Lunker caught here Sat. Would love to earn your business. It's going be a great Spring!

Here's the 13.68 that was weighed in Sat. Feb. 28th

Never used a guide before, but Eddy was everything we expected. We were taught technics as well as best bait for the circumstances. You don’t learn effective fishing methods overnight so we will definitely hire Eddy again for our ongoing fishing adventures. Thanx again to Eddy.

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.

Had a great time on the lake. The weather was a little off but Capt. Joe knew all the right spots to go. We will definitely go again when the weather gets better.

We had an epic day on Lake Fork with Jay! He knows the lake like the back of his hand and had us throwing off points and dropoffs, and up and around structure where the big bass hang out. Jay doesn't miss a beat and had us dialed in all day. Felt like fishing with an old friend and can't wait to be back for more. - Jonathan with Captain Experiences

I had a fun early morning fishing trip with Joe! He knows the lake like the back of his hand so he took me to some of his best spots! The fish weren’t biting too much in a number of the spots but were were able to catch a handful in the end. He taught me about a number of jigs and baits used for this time of year the Bass are biting on, which was awesome to learn! Overall a great experience and definitely would recommend him to anyone looking to go catch some Bass and for a great fishing experience!

Even though the fish weren't biting, anytime I get to spend time with my kiddo is worth it. Brandon was an awesome guide. He took us to several spots, but Mother Nature just wasn't having it today, and it started storming. He was great company and an awesome guide. Even though he didn't have to, he offered to bring us back out, as a make good. We can't wait to get back out. We're ready to drag 'em in.
