Judging by Fork big bass results it might take you 2800 angler days to catch one big fish! How longs your trip? 2 words for you.......BERKLEY BAITS!

If you go to the steakhouse in town do not eat the steak. I have to ask why... Stripes is the best place to eat in town....Promise you This is true.

If you go to the steakhouse in town do not eat the steak. I have to ask why... Because they cows they use for their steaks more than likely died of natural causes! I'm not 100% sure, but I think a portion of the last one I ate there had fossilized. But Falcon rocks. And I love mother Forker! And Sam Rayburn.

Not to hijack, but how deep or what pattern are the bass in Falcon following generally in November? Are they generally hanging out in upper creek channels with bait? Or is it more of a deeper, winter type bite? I live 5 hours away and for some reason haven’t ever been there.

El Paraiso Steakhouse, Zapata, TX.....you have such variation on the menu. One night CFS w/ cheese. Next night CFS w/ gravy. Third night CFS w/ cheese & gravy....then, you may wanna work your way home and buy new underwear cuz your others will need to be thrown away.
Seriously, that's my fav restaurant in town.
I'm not for sure how the fishing is...….

OP, don't past by Sam Rayburn in November. Falcon would be my next choice in Nov. Rayburn would get my vote. Look up Clarke Rheem and book a trip with him. Rayburn has been rated as one of the best bass lakes in the country for a reason. Fork would be my next vote if you come during prespawn. By the way, I grew up in Ohio...MOST decent lakes in Texas will give you a chance at 5lb fish...but don't set expectations that you'll break 10lbs...although they're common here, they don't live under every log and stump.

VERY TRUE!! Berkley needs to hang it up or BC needs to find a new sponsor for their October derby. Cutting up bearded pigs to make skirts for swims, chatters & spinners, because Berkley doesn't even make skirts, is ridiculous!

Keith Combs might still guide on Falcon if your pockets are deep enough, it's his off season for the elite.
