Lake Fork Report

[Stephen Fatherree]

The bass here at Lake Fork are currently being caught all over the lake on main lake structures such as points, roadbeds, humps, and ledges. We have been fishing in 15-25 foot of water through schools of bass and underneath baitfish. The best baits for us have been 3/4 oz green pumpkin football head jigs, 3/4 oz carolina rigs with a 2-4 ft leader and a F-5 Hags Tornado ring fry bait. When you graph suspended fish cast a spoon or deep diving crankbait through these fish to get them to bite. Sometimes it takes a few casts to find these small groups of suspended bass.

On cloudy and rainy days fish a little shallower in 8-12 feet with the same baits. Focus on fishing the south end of the lake along the edges of grass lines. Also a yellow magic topwater bait twitched slowly around the grass and pads will catch some great fish, as well as casting a 1/2oz carolina rig with a 1 foot leader and a zoom super fluke on the grass edges in 8-10 foot of water. Make sure you focus on areas of the grass where it forms a point or ditch.
