Where would some of the better areas on Fork to catch catfish? Always bass fish, time to take the kids out and put some fish in the boat and have fun doing it. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you.

Stubby, I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. Are you saying to dump range cubes or grain overboard and use that to draw the fish or what?

Just go easy on the range cubes to many and they will fill up eating them, Call Stubby77 and get some of his bait that he sells, catfish on fork ask for it by name,

Old roadbed just north of and parallel to FM 515 bridge on west side of lake. Around trees at mouth of creek north of Dallas pump station.

So how long after you throw out a few range cubes does it take to start drawing the cats? 15 minutes, 1 hour?

Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

If you have 20 foot of water with some timber , a five gallon bucket of range cubes, a tub of Stubby's, you can pretty much bank on catching some catfish. If you want to catch bigger cats you may have to move around some and do a little more work. If you could locate this place with a creek channel close and maybe a point that hits that creek channel you could make some bass fishermen mad pulling in some nice fish while they sweat dragging a DD22 around the lake.
