Eddie Garrett's Lake Fork Fishing Report |
|
![]() Submitted 5-16-12 Welcome to Lake Fork Lake level is currently down 1.72 from full pool and temp is averaging 75 degrees. The fishing has been pretty good. My clients have been blessed with some big fish lately. Since last Monday we have boated five overs. A 9.95, 10.02, 10.08, with Crhis Arnold from Kansas landing a 10.10 and Eddie Boles from Trinadad TX. landing a 11.08 / yesterday . There was also several overs recorded at Lake Fork Marina this past week. That should be great news for all of you fishing the Legend tournament this coming Fri. Sat. and Sun. Fish are being caught several ways right now. The early morning top-water has been fair but not lasting long. Watermelon chartreuse dipped trick worms fished wacky has been pretty good in 2' to7' of water thru mid morning. Also throwing Zooms super fluke in the new White Ice color. Bayou Tackle has this color also in the G shad which I will be starting to use now. We whacked them on this bait last year. The big bite has been in deep water though. Fishing 22' to 26' on ridges and humps has been best for us. C-rigs with watermelon chartreuse and sometimes blue fleck 7 1/2' to 10' power worms , spoons and jigs are working. Watch your graph and when you find them suspended out there on these deep spots try DD22s and big flutter spoons. For you deep water jig fishermen try the 3/4 or 1oz Camo color with a green or Watermelon candy trailer when the fish are on the bottom for a chance at a big bite. I
