What a fantastic day out on the water with Kris at the Oak Ridge Marina in Quitman, Texas! April is a prime time for bass fishing in this part of the state, as the warming waters have the Largemouth Black Bass feeding aggressively. We knew we were in for an action-packed trip when we headed out under the partly cloudy skies. As soon as we hit the water, Kris was dialed in, working the banks and transition areas with his baitcasting setup. It wasn't long before he had a solid hook-up, and after a spirited fight, he landed a beautiful Largemouth Black Bass. The bite stayed steady throughout the day, with Kris connecting on several more nice fish. We tried a variety of techniques, from flipping shallow cover to working topwater lures, and the bass were eager to smash our offerings. Between the steady action and beautiful scenery, the time just flew by. Kris was a natural on the water, casting with precision and working each spot methodically. It was great to see him getting dialed in and learning new techniques to improve his game. Even when we didn't have a rod bent, we were still taking in the peaceful surroundings and enjoying the gorgeous day. If you're looking to experience some world-class Largemouth Black Bass fishing in Texas, look no further than a trip with Lake Fork Premier Guide Service. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just getting into the sport, our Half Day Fishing Adventures on Lake Fork will put you on the fish and have you hooked from the first cast. Give us a call today to book your unforgettable bass fishing trip!
Day 1/3 with josh on the lake! The lake was a windy one but we were able to pull into our first cove and be partially protected from the hauling wind. Once we got on the flat. We started seeing bedders and roaming everywhere and josh hooked some solid bass! Day 2 starts tomorrow with 40mph gust winds! Lets get it! Still got some days open in april! • • • #bassfishing #lakefork #fishing #easttexas #lakeforkguide #fish
Arron & miles came out for a crappie/bass bundle. Started the morning catching some crappie on slip corks filling the cooler, as the sun got up and the water started to warm. It was time to hunt some bass. Went to the next cove over and never left. Catching bass started quickly. Good solid day catching bedfish and good size males and females roaming off the bank in the grass. • • • #bassfishing #lakefork #EastTexas #fishing #fish
Would you believe if i said the fish went under 5lbs!!! Absolutely Lake Fork fattayyyy!! • • • #lakefork #lakeforkguide #easttexas #bassfishing #fishing #fish
Had back to back trips today! After running around this morning in a panic after first spot was a bust and couldnt handle the wind in the 2nd area or get on the fish. I finally abandon all that and went and fished something i felt comfortable with and knew me and my clients would enjoy and be protected from the wind. Found the crappie in one spawning cove sitting around the grass line and towards the middle of the pocket in 2 to 3ft of water. Watching slip corks sink under the surface in any direction we threw them was a blast! • • #lakefork #crappiefishing #easttexas

New year! New trips! I hope everyone's excited about the new year. Been away for the holiday season. Now it's time to kickstart the year again at beautiful Lake Fork. Who's ready to slay some crappie and rip some lips on some largemouth? I hope to see some familiar faces and some new faces this upcoming year.
Took Mark & his son austin out on sandlin sunday for some crappie. We stayed out of those gusty 30mph winds and they slayed some giant crappie. Crappie were being a little stubburn with minnows, but they managed to catch a solid amount of crappies and 2 over 2lbs.We caught all our fish on the 9ft brush dobber favorite rods#favoriterodsusaMark is the proud owner of the 515 scenic cabins on beautiful lake fork. If you plan on coming to fork for visit. I highly recommend staying in the beautiful cabins.
we used shad style square bills & cranks on the damn and rock walls and flipped timer with texas rigs and ran squarebills through timber. caught both fish less than a foot of water. both fish were over 5lbs
We came out and tried crappie fishing out for their very first time. Never even touched a rod before and they killed it for the first time. We spent the afternoon on bob sandlin to get away from the tourney traffic on fork. They caught close to 40 to 50 crappie and bagged 25 keepers. Taylor caught the biggest crappie at 16inches, 2lbs. It was a blast.
Sharing this one from May up here now that we have our website live! We spent a day fishing for Largemouth Bass.All our fish were over 5lbs and jackson broke his PB with a 6.10lb bass. We switched it up and laid into some Crappie for the rest of the afternoon, spectated a few pros from a distance.

We had a horrible storm the day before our trip, Ryker contacted us to talk about options since the lake turned to zero visibility. Together we choose a new lake that Ryker put us on fish and had a great time thank you, Mike and Shana,

My son and I had a great trip with Ryker! We caught a ton of crappie to start the day. While crappie fishing my son caught the biggest bass of the day, 4lb 8oz. We then spent the second half of the day catching bass. Lots in the 2-4 lb range. Ryker was patient and knowledgeable. We did some sight fishing which was a first for us and landed several bass that way. Great day- would recommend.
