  • Lake Fork Fishing Report: Crappie Shine, Bass Adapt to Cooler Temps
    Nov 23 2024
    As of November 23, 2024, the fishing scene at Lake Fork, Texas, is quite promising despite the cooler mornings. Here’s what you need to know:

    ### Conditions
    - **Water Level**: The lake is currently 2.22 feet below pool.
    - **Water Temperature**: The water temperature has dropped to around 65 degrees, which is affecting the bass bite.
    - **Water Clarity**: The water is stained.
    - **Weather**: With cooler mornings, the days are still relatively mild, making it a good time to be out on the water.
    - **Sunrise and Sunset**: Sunrise is at around 6:53 AM, and sunset is at approximately 5:06 PM.

    ### Fish Activity
    - **Bass**: The bass bite is slowing down due to the cooler temperatures, but you can still catch them. Topwaters are fair around grass and pond weed, while chatterbaits and spinnerbaits work well out in front of the grass in 3-5 feet of water. Shaky heads around docks and shallow ridges in 3-7 feet are also effective. Carolina rigs on long points and ridges in 5-10 feet are worth trying[1][2][4].
    - **Crappie**: Crappie fishing is phenomenal right now, with fish found in depths from 14-58 feet. Black crappie are grouped up in numbers, and huge white crappie are also being caught. Timber, pole timber, and Bois D Arc trees are good spots, and some fish are holding near bridges as they migrate. Minnows are the best bait, but jigs also work well[1][2][4].
    - **Catfish**: The catfish bite is incredible, with many catfish in the 20-25 feet range around timber. Dropping cattle cubes or sour grain can get you catching fish within 30 minutes on any prepared catfish bait[1][2][4].

    ### Recent Catches
    - Yesterday, bass fishing was decent, with several tournaments reporting good numbers of bass caught and released. For example, the Hard Core Tournament saw 177 bass caught and released, including one lunker[1].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    - For bass, use topwaters, chatterbaits, spinnerbaits, shaky heads, and Carolina rigs.
    - For crappie, minnows and jigs are the best choices.
    - For catfish, any prepared catfish bait works well after dropping cattle cubes or sour grain.

    ### Hot Spots
    - Target main lake points, docks, and shallow ridges for bass.
    - For crappie, focus on timber, pole timber, Bois D Arc trees, and areas near bridges.
    - For catfish, fish around timber in the 20-25 feet range.

    Overall, Lake Fork is offering some great fishing opportunities, especially for crappie and catfish, despite the cooler temperatures affecting the bass bite.
