What is the fishing pressure like there now days? Weekdays and weekends. I have someone who told me it hardly gets pressure anymore.

I have not been in twenty years and it was packed. It is a five hour drive for me and it would suck to get there and wait in line to fish a spot.

I did and there was nothing about fishing pressure of how crowded the lake gets. Unless maybe the subject was something like " I am so sick"

It’s the most pressured lake in Texas. Maybe Big Sam gets more.

I'm sorry.. But asking if the most popular bass lake in Texas is pressured is just funny.... lmao. Rayburn is just as bad. Every inch of every bank gets busted 24 hours a day

Never a dull moment at Rayburn with the countless times I've been

If you want to fish Fork with very little pressure just go in the Fall. Even the guides abandon the lake for the lesser know East Texas lakes then. The down side to Fall fishing on Fork is unless you are Patrick Walters catching an actual bass is near impossible. But you can pretty much get on any spot you want to fish.

I really couldn't disagree more. Last time I had what I considered consistently good fall fishing out there was in 2017, but that was all fishing grass in areas that are completely bare now. Last few years the fall fishing there has been brutal. It's not just Fork though. The opens and delayed Elite events last year showed that fall fishing is generally tough all across the South in the fall. I'm not proclaiming the Lake dead or anything like that. There's just nothing to group those fish up in the fall without the grass. They just scatter and become hard to pattern. Not gonna lie, I will attempt the ol jerkbait in the timber this fall though. I'm sure I won't be alone in that.

Tx just for the heck of it go back in the club page and check out what the Lake Fork Anglers were catching in October and November in 2020. I personally had a great fall.
Caught my personal best weight on a 5 and a 8 fish in one tournament. And it was in the grass. You just need to know where to find it.
