Welcome to Lake Fork
Water level is - .63 and surface temps are mid to upper 70s. This Spring was one of the most inconsistent ones I've seen since in a long time. Lot of cold fronts in and out with flatulating water level was the main reason I think. We just didn't have the numbers on a daily basis like we have in the past. Good thing is the spawn fry survival rate should be awesome with all the new cover. We have been staying shallow all the way up to now. Lot of fish are starting to move out offshore now finally which is my favorite way to target them. Secondary and main lake points are where to look for them right now. Top waters early shallow on these points will work well. Carolina rig, drop shot, shaky head and cranking are the other best techniques to try. Shallower humps, ridges, road beds and pond damns also. It should start fishing a lot more consistent with more stable weather. As always thanks for reading my report. If you need a guide please contact me by cell or text 972 979 4850.

Welcome to Lake Fork
Lake level is only  - .95 low and still rising from recent rain runoff. Surface temp is 67 to 68 degrees after long cold front last week. This past April was one of the most inconsistent bites I've ever seen here. Just too many cold fronts with up and down temps. We're still staying very shallow using tx. rigged senkos and flukes for the most part. Some rigged wacky in areas the flooded cover isn't that thick. Their has also been a frog bite  on some occasions with cloud cover but not very consistent. We're  also throwing a short c-rig with flukes. There's still some fish spawning and we will see a another very small wave on this coming full moon on the 5th . I'm about to move offshore for post spawners. May is a very good month to fish Fork. Shad spawn on shallow points and shell beds early in the month. It's also swim bait and top water time on these places. which will be very productive. I also like a cig and drop shot very much this month. If you need a guide I would be happy to have you. You can reach me @ 972 979 4850 by call or text. Also book online @ bassfshingwitheddie.com  Thanks for reading my report.
Good Fishing!

Lake Fork Facts From Eddie: Lake Fork Size: 27,700 acresAge: Impoundment began 1980, filled to capacity 1985Location: Approximately 75 miles east of downtown Dallas, five miles west of Quitman, just east of U.S. Highway 69.Description: The dam impounds Lake Fork Creek, a tributary of the Sabine River. Other&nbsp;major creeks&nbsp;are Big Caney and Little Caney. The water is usually stained to moderately clear, with widespread distribution of hydrilla and other flooded vegetation. Most standing timber was left in the original reservoir basin. Structure: Flooded timber is found throughout Lake Fork and provides a excellent fish habitat. Although access through the reservoir is provided by numerous buoyed boat lanes, submerged timber can be a substantial hazard, so care should be exercised while boating in all areas. Fishing with your best Lake Fork bass fishign guide, Eddie, will ensure your safety navigating this puzzle. Areas containing hydrilla, boathouse, docks, and lake points have historically provided some of the best fishing for largemouth bass. When Eddie isn't professionally fishing, he's still fishing.
