Is the crappie fishing any good there? I've only fished it a couple of times and only caught white bass. I've notice Christmas trees and pvc pipes under some docks. Just wondering if it is worth fishing for.

Myself and a person I was told is banned from the forum now fished it quite a bit a few months ago. The lake holds some really nice black and white crappie. Wish he was still here, im sure he'd be able to point you in the right direction. In all, id say its worth a try.

I've ate plenty of crappie and sandies from lake worth and I haven't turned inside out yet. The crappie are on fire right now the females I've cleaned are about to pop. Get you a bucket of minnows and have fun.

I ate a couple of white bass and never got sick. I think I'm gonna try just for crappie next. Maybe throw some jigs under the docks.

Its not the immediate effects you have to worry about when consumed.

The advisory states "Clear Fork of Trinity River from Benbrook Reservoir dam and West Fork from Lake Worth dam, including main stem of the Trinity downstream to US 287 bridge". Doesn't that mean the fish came out of lake worth?? God only knows what the Air Force base dumped in that lake in the 40 's, 50's and 60's etc lol.. Maybe that's why there is a banned on Mountain creek cause it also borders a Naval base too.

Get you a bucket of minnows and have fun. Where have you been catching em at? Are they near the banks, or out around structure in the lake. Went out about 2 wks ago, and couldn't buy a bump...but I'd imagine that the water has warmed up a bit since then.

Yesterday when I was out water temp was in the low 70's. I was sitting in 2ft of water pitching as far back under the dock as I could get towards the bank and hammered them every time.

Anyone having any luck recently (last couple days) with the crappie on Lake Worth? I went Saturday, and caught 1 on a minnow, with a couple of other bites. Am I too late?? I was in the shallows, up near the docks.

We didn't go until this evening, caught one crappie a catfish and a bass by some docks before the front ran us off. Are there brush piles by the bridge? That's where I launch at. If you take a right from the launch around the first corner is where I fished.

Last time I launched at Lake Worth there was a consumption ban sign at the launch by the 820 bridge. Been a few years ago.

That's the area I normally hit first too. Not far from bridge. How deep were you fishing?
