Took son out Saturday, I may be the only guy on fork who cant find any. maybe we were to early, or deep. did find some underwater bridges I did not know where there, but that's not much, I only get out a few times a year. Checked both 515 bridge submerged road beds, other road beds and points, main lake. I suck.

This is a trailering event so we will have boats launching from ramps all over the lake. All contestants weighing fish will have until 12:00 Noon to be in line with their 10 fish for weigh in. After weighing their 10 sand bass they may bring there fish up for the tickets for raffle prizes.
I will also try to get some of the guides to update us throughout the week on sand bass activity and areas to focus on. They want this event to be successful as much as anybody.
Thanks Mark Howard 214-773-5451

Thanks Mark Howard 214-773-5451 Perfect. Your experience is showing. I won't be looking for sand bass, I'll be looking for ribbons, lol. Last time I caught a sand bass Reagan was president.

I have 3 boys ages 8,8 and 9. Can I be the captain and not fish? I totally understand if the answer is no but who knows if there will ever be another fantastic tourney like this that is only 1/2 day. Thank you.

Last time I was out both 515 road beds were covered up with them. You couldn't pull a crankbait through there without getting a 2 pound sandy!!

Thank you. I have no problem with that at all. With 3 boys you on sand bass you wouldn't get a chance to fish anyway! Anybody that sees this boat of younguns please wave them in on the juice!

That's what this is all about right there!! Can I make a suggestion to the man fishing with three young boys? Before you start fishing mash all the barbs down on their lures. It will help you unhook thie fish and will also make it much easier to extract a hook in the event one of them gets a little excited and hooks his little brother. Don't ask me how I know this.....

got a family barbeque to attend, so unfortunately can't make it.
but, I was out on Fork on Friday afternoon; fished the point between Williams and Mustang, fished the point just south of LFM, and fished another spot near the dam. I marked fish at all locations, but not a lot of shad. the fish were all over the water column, but seems mostly in the 15-20 range. no surface schooling at all. ended the day catching 1 medium sized sand bass on a white crankbait. I tried everything I had that was either silver or white, but they just didn't seem to be biting that day.
what was I doing wrong? although I can't fish this event, I plan on doing my share to reduce the sand bass population over the coming months.
good luck to everyone!

We need more tournaments like this! These things put a hammer on bass and bass forage on Lake Fork!
