Lake Fork Fishing Reports

Lake Fork Fishing Report 


Lake Fork is offering prime fall fishing conditions, making it a top destination for anglers, particularly those targeting largemouth bass. As water temperatures dip into the low 70s, bass are becoming more active, especially in the morning and late afternoon. Shallow areas near grass beds, timber, and creek channels are producing great results, with topwater lures like buzzbaits and frogs effective during early hours. Later in the day, anglers are having success with crankbaits and jigs along deeper ledges and structure. Crappie fishing is also picking up, with catches being made around brush piles in 15-20 feet of water using jigs and minnows. Catfish action remains steady, particularly for channel and blue catfish on cut bait near creek mouths and shallow flats.


We get these questions frequently. What is the best time of day to fish at Lake Fork? Early morning and late afternoon are the best times to fish, as the cooler temperatures increase fish activity, especially for largemouth bass. What lures work well for bass at Lake Fork this time of year?

Topwater lures like buzzbaits and frogs are effective in the early morning, while crankbaits and jigs work well later in the day around deeper structures. Lastly, Where can I catch crappie on Lake Fork? Crappie are being caught around submerged brush piles in 15-20 feet of water, with jigs and minnows being the most successful baits.
