The Lake Fork Fall night Big Bass bite is starting to get rolling. The water is a little off-color from all the rain, temps have ranged 61-68 degrees. There is a ton of bait fish shallow. TX Rigged 10-inch worms and lightly weighted soft plastic jerk baits have been most productive for us, lately. This bite really gets going in November. Here's one from a few nights ago:

So is there a better chance of getting a good one at night or during the day in November?

Hey Whitt, I've night fished a few times on Fork and caught some fish, but nothing spectacular. In general do you move around quite a bit at night. Or sit on a likely spot for several hours waiting for fish to "move through"?

In my opinion you have a better chance of catching a big fish at night all year long.

Thanks guys. Ref. moving or staying put, I usually do move around, but will stay longer in locations where weve caught many big bass in the past. JWalls, Night time is Prime Time to catch BIG Bass in November.

Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.
