LFA fishes a team competition once a month. All of our tournaments, on the other Thursdays daytime during the month are draw. Members are always fishing with someone new thereby getting the opportunity to learn many techniques, baits, and places. We are are not capped and are always looking for new members to join our other 50+ mostly seniors.

Each team counts their best 10 fish caught between them. Of course all of the fish caught are measured on a Chek it Stik, recorded and then released. No fish are retained unless someone were to catch a SAL which has never happened.

While members catch a fair share of Lake Fork overs, that is fish over 24", most of the bass are of normal size. For us everything 10" and over counts. Some days a little bass is what saves your day.

Same as last month...On Thursday it started out cold with high winds and never really warmed up. But then no one got skunked either. Todays fish were caught mainly on c-rigs, drop shots and chatter baits. We found no fish on beds anywhere.

Bob Roberts and Charlie Abresch were first with 16.76 on 6 bass anchored by Charlie's lunker of 4.68 lunker.
Rick Green and John Womack were second with 13.94 on 7 bass anchored by John's 3.78 lb lunker
Randy Steele and Mac McDaniel were third with 8.47 on 4 bass anchored by Randy's 2.25 LB. lunker
Galen Smith and Gene Shoemaker were fourth with 8.42 on 5 bass anchored by Gene's 2.36 LB. lunker
Bruce Allen and Charlie Arnold were fifth with 6.95 on 3 bass anchored by my 3.46 lunker.

Starting in May the 5th Thursday will still be a Major League Fishing format but we will fish it as teams on a trial basis.

LFA Members must fish 8 regular tournaments during the year in order to qualify for the Team Championship, and the Major League Fishing Championship.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Mar. 12)

GOOD. Water Stained; 57 degrees; 0.10 feet below pool. Water temperature is 54-59 degrees in most places. Shallow bite is good all over the lake with chatterbaits, spinnerbaits, senkos, and flukes are very good in 1-3 feet. Squarebill crankbaits are good in 2-4 feet on flats and near ditches. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Catching small bass shallow with baitfish streamers. Larger females will become more active as warm days continue around structure and brush. The crappie should be moving shallow and Wooly buggers can be a good choice. Report by Guide Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork Guide Service. Lake Fork water temperatures are headed upward, hopefully for good this week. There are tons of prespawn crappie and some active spawning fish. You can find fish shallow in the afternoons and that should get better all day long this week. Lots of fish are still to be found in the 6-20 feet range. This week there were numbers of roaming crappie not relating to structure. Hand tied jigs, soft plastics and minnows all will work now if you get the bait close to the fish. Recent rains still have the north ends of the lake muddy or stained, so you need to focus on getting bait right on fish. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
