The fishing this week has been good with the warm weather in the past few days. Spinner bait's are producing some good bass on windy points, yesterday all of our bass came on a spinner bait by the end of the day we had 17 with one that went 11lbs 9oz and two over seven pounds. The spinner bait we used was a ¾ oz Colorado willow with nickel and gold blades and a chartreuse and white skirt. We had most of our hits fishing the bait slow, most of the bass would just stop the bait, when you get warm weather this time of year slow rolling a big spinner bait on the edge of the grass is a good pattern to catch big bass on lake fork. Red and orange lipless crank baits are and will be my best baits day in and day out now through February. Best water depth for me has been 5 to 8 feet on the edge of the grass on main lake and secondary points. The best bite for me has been 10am until dark. Right now I am fishing different areas each day. Birch creek, white oak and little Caney are producing some good fish right now. All the bass that we have been catching have been fat and healthy. I love this time of year not many boats on the lake and on any cast you have a chance to catch a bass of a life time. The lake is 5 feet low so be careful running the lake.

I am now booking spring dates. Book early to get the best available dates! Call 903-629-7699 or 903-629-5085 Until next time.

Good Fishing!
