The fishing hear on lake fork has been good the bass are schooling big time. The water temp at the time of this report is in the mid eighties on the main lake. Lake Fork is in great shape the water is clear and we have grass showing up all around the lake. We are catching good numbers of small fish with a few good fish mixed in. Right now we are catching 40 to 50 bass a day. Best pattern for me has been a lipless crank baits in shad color the schooling bass are killing it, also a Carolina Rig with a watermelon Red brush Hog. The fish we are catching on the Carolina Rig are in 15 to 20 feet. Yesterday Steve Casto from Dallas fished with me and we boated 65 bass most of these fish were average but a lot of action. The Bass Fishing should continue to improve as we head into October. Good places to try right now are the old roadbeds 515 west and 2946 are good right now; also the bass have been schooling in the mouth of Ray Branch. There are lots of small Bass up close to the grass and pads while most of your bigger Bass are still in the deeper water for now. As conditions cool down over the next few weeks that will change rapidly and the bigger Bass will start to move up. The fall fishing here at Lake Fork can be some of the best fishing anywhere; so don't miss out on the fall fun.
