Lake Fork Report- pics- updated - 06/06/17 04:57 PM

Lake Fork is in great shape and fishing great. The lake is full and has a bunch of flooded cover, from pads, willows to coon tail grass, etc. You can get on 'em shallow in the morning around pads, willows and grass on watermelon or green pumpkin wacky worms, shad color flukes/ bass assassins, etc.

Later on, move out to structure (humps, ridges, drops and points) 18- 20 ft or so and graph. When ya find 'em, go to work on 'em with C-Rigs, Drop Shots, swim baits or a 3/8 to 1/2 oz TX Rig 10" worm, if there is heavy timber or brush around.

Be safe out there, wear those life jackets and kill switches. There was a fatal crash here, recently. Good luck and see ya'll on the lake. Some recent pics of the better fish below.

We watched you whack them man...no way we were going to creep up on you guys while you were on them like that!

Congrats! That trolling motor of yours looks like it works killer...I want one of those!

Fun to watch even! I was w/ Zach Hughes and we crushed em pretty good that day as well.

Yes, I had my new troll motor on Spot Lock, so I could just focus on landing my clients bass & re-rigging them. You'll enjoy one. Thanks for the courtesy & space. We heard y'all cheering them on. Look forward to seeing y'all on the lake, again.
