Lake Weatherford

Looks like I will have a chance to fish Lake Weatherford this weekend, Ive never been there, is it worth fishing ?

its a fun little lake. I grew up fishing it. we did really well fishing 3" smoke pepper grubs under docks, and sassy shads on jigheads.

Thanks Skeeter Ronnie On google earth it looks like lilly pads on the upper end, are they worth frogging ?

its been 20 years, i think most of that silted in before we stopped fishing up there. might be worth it if there's a channel running through it where the bass can get in some deeper water for oxygen/temp decrease

put down the trolling motor and start fishing the docks right outside the marina, and around that point to the west. used to do good on several of those.

ive heard rumor of Gary Klien catching some big sacks of fish off a bridge way back years ago. I see a roadbed looking object on the north east side of the lake. might be worth side imaging that area to see if there's an underwater bridge to fish

No

Tons of brush in the lake.
be careful going up north to the pads very shallow and stumpy.

Lake has Giants in it!
heck 30 of the 32 DD's Hollingshead has caught have come from Weatherford LOL

If you like crappie its and excellent crappie lake too!

Is it clear water ?

not really. the lake looked good two weeks ago.
personally, I would go to Bridgeport instead if you are looking to catch numbers.
you will have a better trip and more stuff to fish. I have fished weatherford my whole life but still find myself going to benbrook or Bridgeport instead.

I can only manage to catch 1 $7 fish it seems lol. And never seen any kind of trees or veg. unless your way up north in 2 ft of water. Many better places to go.

$7 ramp fee btw.

That's nothing compared to the Eagle mountain ramp fees! lol

Watch out for the man eating devil cow!

Well I fished Weatherford, only caught one, it was a 5#er !! Would like to try a different lake tomorrow, what lakedo you fellers recommend ?

I’d drive to worth

I was wondering about Worth, what can you tell me about it ?

its fishing good had a 7 and several 4's today only went for a few hours

Ok thank you, If Im coming from Weatherford where should I unload, and are the fish shallow?

820 ramp need a lake pass exit Cahoba and get a pass at the gas station on the corner and ramp is below bridge on service road cash only for pass $20

Man I'd love to ride in the back of your boat one day on Worth, gas and a case of beer. Whatever it would take.
