I'm headed there tonite to try night fishing for 3 nights. I caught a DD the first of march on a plum worm. Red seemed to be the key color then and should still be good. I caught alot on a red square bill and senko.
PB: 10.78 lbs at Lake Fork

We were there a few weeks ago and caught a few on watermelon red brush hogs with a split shot about 6 in above the bait. Just fish slow!

.....Fork is on fire. You have fish in pre spawn, spawn, and post spawn patterns right now. Mid lake is holding a ton of fish shallow as in 1ft-3ft to fish in 5-10 ft. Just pick a creek, tie on a soft plastic and go fishing. Fish are holding to timber big time. Big/Little Mustang, Wolf, Dale, Williams, Indian are a pretty dang good place to start!
Run the boat lanes, idle when you're not in em and hang on when you hook up. Could be ol Sally.
Good luck

I had one of my best days ever on fork saturday. There were tons of bass loaded up on points in 5 to 15 feet of water feeding on shad and occasionlly schooling up on top. They mostly appeared post spawn. Probly caught close to 50 bass.
