You should have been in the tournament! What good would that have done? ??? He had a 10.89 over, Saturday. 10.65 won the whole shebang.

Oh. Sorry about that. For some reason I thought it was a two day deal.

I fish Fork about 100 days a year. The fishing was really tough this weekend (for me at least). Pressure, post front conditions has a lot of effect on the fish. They didn't really turn on until 2:00 Sunday for me. Then I caught some really nice slots that got my heart pumping with only minutes left in the tourney. I caught a 8.00 at 2:10 that I thought might have a chance to be an over... Nope 23 1/2". It was a fun tournament and everyone was very courteous where I was. Fork can and will humble you.

Fork was slower than normal this weekend obviously because of pressure and weather the week prior......
You want the reality about Fork, go fish other lakes in your region and compare. I thought fishing was tough like I said but still would have had a high 20's even 30 lb bag all 3 days I fished.

I wonder how many slot fish were caught in those 12,600 hours of fishing?
Fork is still king IMO.
History has shown us that she continues to get pounded and still produces year after year.
Go back a couple of weeks ago and Mark Packs best five went over 50lbs.
