Lake Fork report- 10/26

I am the guy in the tan pants......




Less than 10 bites. Probably only boated 5-6 fish. Nothing over 2lbs. Burned some oil and gas. Fork won.

surprised,...we saw a lots of fish schooling sat and sun,..tons of bait fish in the mouths of coves,..
they should be setting up and chasing shad ..

That is exactly what I was expecting to see as well. The shad are up shallow and plentiful but the bass are not chasing them much at all. Not even low light etc. We covered a lot of water and they
were just not super active at all for us.

Stll beats working and I am gonna give it hell again in the AM.

I fished form 10:30am -3pm today and caught 12 little guys, 4 decent 14-15" weigh fish and 6 slots up to 5 pounds.

I never fished shallower than 14 feet, so I am not surprised I didn't run into you Mark.

More than 10' of line on one of my reels is just wasteful.....

Sometimes Fork just wins. I learned a long time ago not to take it personal when I have a bad day on this lake....

That's hilarious!!
We've all been there- I know I have more times than I would ever want to recall!
Seems like you nearly always find them Mr Perry so I'm sure you will rebound nicely.

That's funny Mark... I feel your pain, Fork has smashed my nads many a time...
