Yall have fun out there tomorrow. I will have both kids with me (6 and 2 years old) so I won't be able to fish it. Really wanted to. I might get a chance to take my daughter out either early Sunday or Monday, so if anyone here gets on a decent school of them, please shoot me a PM. I've never had much luck boating more than 1 or 2 sand bass out at Fork. Not sure why, but I'd love to get some help so I could put my little girl on a few fish.

This might be tougher than I thought, got on the water at 6:30. Hit 5 different notorious Sand Bass spots and only caught 3 on a jigging spoon. Good thing pot licking will be encouraged, and I ain't no stranger to Lake Fork. The spots I tried were 515 bridge road beds east and west. Cowhead and the mouth of Big Caney, Horseshoe and the sunken road bed and bridge in Birch creeck. Good Luck to all and I'm sure somebody will get on 'em. That's alright, we'll just follow RedSkeeter!

That's what I'm doing! That boat has a school of fish following it around all the time!

Guys should use this thread to post where the sandies are being caught, and how they're being caught!

My brother and I won big bag and big fish with 17.5 for bag and 2.5 for fish. We caught 24. Only one team caught a limit. So all teams at weigh in got a raffle ticket. It was a fun event.
Thanks Ken for organizing. Thanks Mark and Diane for running today's activities. It was done very smoothly and quickly.

A good time was had by all and a total of 146 fish were weighed. There was one team who had 31 and another with 24 as well as numerous teams who had numbers in the teens. That being said the body count was somewhere in the 250-300 range overall.
