It has been several years since I have fished it but for 15+ years my father and great uncle met up there every year. Didn't matter what was going on in our lives that weekend was booked. We enjoyed the circus but never took ourselves serious. Made some great memories and rarely cashed a check. Got on the water late, wasn't going to run in the dark, got off the water early to miss the boat ramp chaos. Had more fun sitting at the truck with a beverage watching people back trailers and load boats.

I can imagine if your there to fish seriously it would be tough.

It was my first one and I stayed at lake fork marina, I had zero issues launching at 530-545 am or pulling out at 210 every day.

On the water it wasnt bad at all, I wouldnt even say I was around many boats most of the time. I guess I was in the wrong places.

I think there are a ton of people on here posting how bad it is just like when someone asks about xxx lake they say its terrible.. Its a sad day when fishermen are such jerks.

Not the best place for politics on stage at the tournament but at least he is right about who to vote for in 2020.

What was your primary technique?

You must have caught a bunch of slot fish if you only cashed 1 check. 100+ that is awesome for three days out there with that much pressure on the lake at the time.


Please respond, I would love to catch just half as many you did. 50+ slot fish would be awesome. You must be a fantastic angler to catch that many with that much pressure on the lake.

I didn't end up making it, but my dad and a family friend went and they caught 12 fish Thursday, 10 Friday, 13 Saturday and 9 Sunday. 44 fish total and 8 of them were slot fish, 2 weighed in, 1 cashed a check and the rest were 1.75 and under. They fished exclusively moving baits. They were of course happy and surprised to catch 44 fish given the number of boats on the lake, just didn't find the right size of fish.

Caught 90% on a drop shot fishing off shore, only had 8-10 slot fish with the biggest being 4 lbs. most of the fish I caught were between 10-14 inches. I weighed in a few of the 14-15 inch fish and got bumped every time.

From Thursday to Sunday we boated around 60-65 bass and probably lost another 20... majority caught on a drop shot and texas split shot rig. Few also caught on chatter baits/crank baits thrown on wind blown banks. We cashed two checks... 6th place with a 2.11 and a 3rd place with a 2.23... only caught 8-9 slots over the course of those 4 days... nothing over 4.5 pounds. Overall good weekend and to me it feels like there were a lot less boats on the water compared to other years, especially Friday.
