I have been to Lake Fork once this past April. Stayed at the Lake Fork Lodge. Overall - Great time, caught some good ones, played golf once and ate good. Tiffany’s was nice and was unexpected.
Looking to come down again fairly soon. Bass fishing only. We live in Kansas City and I bringing a friend that has never been.
The two questions I have:
1) if you could pick a week right now, had to be picked now but could be any week, now til December, which week would you choose.
2) would you choose somewhere else to stay, get a slip, eat etc?
I wont have to ask after a few more trips but I appreciate the forum and the help people gave last trip. Must be a Texas thing.
Thanks guys Ryan

The first of November can be good. Not many boats and the lake is finished turning over.
I hate photobucket.

I think there is a guy here on the forum that has a nice trailer at Fork that he rents out. If I'm wrong about that, maybe it's a room above the garage. Just something to consider.

Good places to eat in Emory are El Manna mex food Marshall"s BBQ Side Kicks on hwy19 I’ll add: Gordita Express - drive though/small dine in area as well Stefano’s Greek Kouzina Chateau Bistro (best western) - It’ll take 2-3hrs but the food is top notch Funny Frogs (next to Dairy Queen) Has great hard ice cream and good food well. Dos Charros makes a pretty good margarita and has cold beer.

Appreciate the help. You guys are always super helpful.
With work and friend’s work, we are coming down 11/6-11/10
Hoping we are able to find some fish. Plan is to start in Little Caney on Sunday and then looking for some main lake isolated trees if they aren’t shallow.
It looks like pretty stable weather and the lake levels dropping.
We have an extra day on the end. If they arent biting at Fork, any thoughts on a spot for numbers?
Thanks
