Vehicle Details
Lake Fork continues to deliver excellent bass action this season, with anglers landing plenty of quality largemouths. Water temperatures are hovering around 78–82°F, creating ideal conditions for active bass throughout the day. Early mornings and late afternoons remain the prime times to target bass near submerged timber and rocky shorelines. Top presentations include shaky head worms, Carolina rigs, and spinnerbaits. Anglers report success using crawfish and creature baits in natural colors. Surface action has picked up during low light, so don’t hesitate to try topwater lures like frogs and buzzbaits for exciting strikes. The lake’s clarity is good, making finesse techniques effective in deeper brush piles and ledges. Overall, Lake Fork is buzzing with productive spots for all skill levels. Plan your trip now to experience one of Texas’ premier bass fisheries at its best!
Break records-it’s the best time to go after Largemouth Bass, Crappie is also on the list and there are also some Catfish biting. show off your angling skills! Booking your trip now for the rest of August and September before they fill up. Night trips are also available.

Was suppose to go to Fork. Jay suggested Welsh since Fork has been slow. Caught over 30 at Welsh. Would definitely recommend.

We came from Ohio to experience the famous Lake Fork. We booked a trip with Jay and were not disappointed. He put us on some big fish! It was honestly like fishing with an old buddy. We’ll be back to Lake Fork and look forward to fishing with him again!
