It's my first post on here but I've been lurking for quite a while. I know that not a lot of anglers like giving up there spots but I'm looking for some Fork advice. I've had some luck on this lake everytime I go but it's always been in late march. I'm headed there this weekend and would like to know if my normal plan would still work. I'm launching from Lake Fork Resort and plan on headed down to little and big mustang to fish docks. I've caught some pigs out of there including a 10.10 2 years ago. Any opinions or ideas?

 I went out fishing the "usual" spots last Wednesday and got skunked. I went out with a guide yesterday and did well. I'm curious to see what others tell you. The fishing on Fork for me has been tough lately. Good luck if you brave it alone. Jackson

The best fishing for me is deep around 25 foot give or take a couple feet. Its all about finding the feeding schools. Main lake humps ridges and roadbeds. Hotter the better .throw a rig or spoon . A good nav chip helps find these places

Any of the main lake bridges holding large schools of schooling fish.

If you plan on hitting those docks at night, you will be fine. During the day you better be on a roadbed, point, or pond dam in least 18'. My best depth has been 18'-25' on these structures. Just finding fish on the graph has not worked well for me, there has needed to be a ball or two of shad in the area. Carolina rigged flukes and heavy tx rigged 10" worms have been ok. If you're launching at Lake Fork Resort, white oak point and the old saw mill hump would be good places to start your day.

No, he means public hump just south of the 2946 bridge.
