This!


This is not a new pattern. It has been this way for the past 30 years. Not saying you can't catch them early in the morning or late in the day but mid day to mid afternoon, in the hottest part of the day has always been best for numbers of good fish on Fork.

Every time I run into someone that has landed a true Giant at Fork I always ask what time they caught the fish. Almost without fail it is between noon and 5 pm.

Don't bother asking where or what they caught it on, they will lie about that! wink


I caught mine c-rigging a double deep driving crank-bait trailed by an A-rig grin


That's weird, same thing I caught mine on except I used braid and a snap ring.

I won't lie about where I caught my 14.19. It was on the edge of the old brood pond on the left side of mouth of Dale creek in 18 FOW. Of course that was 1993 so prolly not much help to anyone now. bolt
Oh and it was about 1pm give or take 30 seconds.


Yet another Giant caught mid-day!

Not just Fork. I fish deep on JP just about every week, and I haven't caught a good fish before 10am in quite a while

fish the lights.


"..The pleasantist angling is to see the fish
Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

I just saw the Media results from last weekend on Fork... don't feel bad about having a bad trip, some of the best sticks on the lake zeroed and it only took 4 lbs to get a check. That's BRUTAL!
