My place is in Paradise Forest and used to launch at their ramp (until I found Pope's). The last few times I went there the owner was always letting me know the status of their "licker license" which had expired. He seemed more worried about that than the condition of his place.

Many boats on the lake not many catching fish...I fished in the 1990's and was catching 75 to 100 a day!! Now I am lucky to catch 7 to 10 on a good day...Doing much better on other lakes...Lake Fork will never be what it was...

Sounds to me like you need to hire a guide. Cause if you can't catch more than that, than you suck

I talked to a guy in Pope's Landing this weekend that just moved in from Fisherman's Cove. He said the owners just packed up and left town! Took his money and ran! I know Popes has brand new water front lots. Maybe check with them. John's the manager and a great guy. Sounds like the jerks that had Froggie D's they left under the cover of night also taking peoples stuff with them.

This is just another sign that the whole lake is in decline...Business's are suffering all around the lake. Lake Fork will never be what it used to be...Many fisherman are going elsewhere for bass, sad to say I am too. Would you please take another thousand or so with you?

Lake Fork will never be what it used to be...Many fisherman are going elsewhere for bass, sad to say I am too. I would say that you are full of it. Fork is still producing giants weekly. If you don't believe me look at the guides posts, or fish it for yourself. I think the decline in business right now has to do with the fact that fork is almost exclusively a fishing lake, and a lot of guys would rather take the hottest months off. Poor management is the problem with businesses, if you are competing for the same clientele you have to stand out above the crowd. That's why folks like lake fork marina, Tiffany's, AJ's fish house just to name a few seem to keep chugging along. You should do your research before you open your mouth and dump garbage all over a thread. Just sayin'.

Tracy lee, with all the money you have and all the aluminum cans I generate, we could make a run at it, you handle the morning crowd and I will over see the karaoke operation. Just throwing it out there,  In all seriousness, I hope it gets worked out for you guys up there. Karma will catch up with them one day, it always does. I think we could do it. It's even big enough inside for some SCW wrastlin' on Saturday nights
