The bay fishing is starting to get interesting. Lots of sheepshead moving along the rocks at the jetties. Just need calmer weather to go get after them. Some bull reds are showing up there also. As the water temperature warms up after the cold weather we had last week expect the bite to only heat up as well. Speckled trout and redfish will move out deeper water in search of warmer temperatures and begin feeding on prey as it moves out shallower. Schools of black drum will also be easy targets once warmer water temperatures rise.

Welcome to Lake Fork The lake is at full pool now A lot of bass were moving up shallow on the last good warming trend with surface temps reaching the upper 50s in the afternoon in certain areas. We have had frigid freezing temps this week though which have knocked temps way back down for a bit. They were biting orange or red square bills, lipless cranks and chatter baits in 3' to 5' on shallow flats outside of creeks and secondary points. We're getting a good warming trend all next week and the post spawn is about to get real good all the way to the spawn and these fish are fat. Once they pull up shallow they don't move to far back out. Just fish a little further backoff the spawning flats in your nearby ditches and drains. Your Northern part of the lake will have a little warmer surface temps which a couple degrees can make a lot difference in the bite when its cold. Trips starting to book up so don't wait too long to get a preferred date for the post spawn and spawn.
