Nov can be a great month to catch
lots of fish and have a few big ones in the mix. Now the rain and high
waters have gone you can bet the fish will get back to doing what they
been doing before all this crazy weather. Now temps can make a big
difference this month with low temps at night this will affect the
topwater bite big time. If the water temp in the mornings hang around 70
degrees topwater action is usually very good. High 60's are ok but
nothing like the 70+ range. Now grass is good all month from main lake
to in the pockets but some of the bigger bass will be around the main
lake stuff. Points, flats, and ditches are very good places. Pockets
with deep water are good also. Now as for as baits I like in Nov well
for numbers you cannot beat a lipless crank baits in chrome/blue in a
1/2 oz. I like these baits in clearer water but red/orange in the
dirtier water. Best depths can be from 2-5 on warm days to 6-8 on cooler
days just keep the bait above the grass. Spinner baits, chatter baits
are also good around the same areas and chart/white 3/8 oz are the
colors that work best. Flukes, shadee shads are good on top of the
deeper grass if the fish are not chasing the baits above. Watermelon
red, and glimmer blue and white are the best colors. Just slow down and
you will catch them. Now here are my list of bottom baits I like this
time of year. Carolina rigs are good with french fry's and mag finesse
and watermelon red or anything close seems to work. Viper XP Jigs in a
3/8 oz are good in sourgrape and purple passion worked around points and
ditches with grass/timber mix. I hope this helps you on your next trip
to Lake Fork. If you are interested in a guide trip on Lake
