Me and a couple of buddies are heading to Fork tomorrow for a week and was looking for some ideas on where to start and any baits to throw, colors, water depth's etc. Haven't been to Fork since first week in November and was looking for some help from fellow TFF members. Any PM's would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help.

Was there last weekend. Plenty of bed fish if you like to do that. i was just fishing small pockets around mustang with a green pumpkin fluke and catching plenty of staging fish. Rogues and chatterbaits are working early and late, as well as a bream colored squarebill. My dad has a camper over near Possum Creek and he caught fish in Bell, Rogers, Glade, and Long Branch doing the same thing on Wednesday and Thursday.

the key was really those bigger stumps, if you find a cluster of them, flip that shakeyhead at every one from all different angles, we hit one spot and caught ten in 15 minutes in a 30yard circle, it was sweet!
