I am planning a few day trip to lake fork Texas. This is my first time going to this area and looking forward to it. I will be traveling from the Midwest to get out of this snow and ice for a min lol. I was wondering if anyone could give me a fishing report or any tips for this lake. Also any surrounding towns with motels for lodging or bait shops that some one might suggest. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Yantis and Quitman area and in the middle of that is the Minnow Bucket. They are on Hwy 154 and close to Dam, and minnow bucket is 50 yds from state ramp. Their are a lot of places to stay around minnow bucket. I have been here all winter and it has been slow for me.
Yep, it has been very slow.
to catch more fish you might wanna wait until late March - Sorry!
Thanks we fished most of the day today and ended up with a few. Going to try farther north tomorrow I think. We fished points by the dam area and the bridge by minnow bucket. Not a lot of action.
You are correct it was slow today. Very slow. Lol
What is the water temperature?
yesterday temp was 59 in 10 fow and the bit was on. Got 18 very nice ones 12" to 14" and they hit like a tank. Fun day.
Sat. fishing had temp at 57 to 58. caught 20 from 12' to over 15'. that size of fish was a lot of fun
The 154 and 515 bridges are the best spots on Lake fork.....Quote:
