Lake Fork Anglers Faze 4 Thursday daytime tournament for April 6 was perhaps the best fishing day you could expect for the the beginning of April. No real wind, cool to start and then warm in the afternoon. With the SPAWN well on it's way you'd think more quality fish would have been caught. But with the murky water it made things more difficult than in past years.

Faze 4 is a draw team competition where our members are paired together for the benefit of everyone that still need help in learning and improving. Boat driving safely around Fork, Techniques, baits and spots.

The teams are allowed to count their best ten fish, slots count.

Fairly new member Mike McWhorter got to show off his new Bullet and with co-angler (but consistent club winner) Charlie Abresch they caught 14 bass of which the top 10 count for 19.55 and Charlie had the 6.55 lunker.
Longtime member Steve Eldred switching from co-angler to boater also brought his first time boat, another beautiful Bullet.

First Place Team of Mike McWhorter and Charlie Abresch on the ten biggest for the boat came in with 19.55 with the 6.55 lunker.
Second place team of Jack White and Dopn Overstreet on their 9 biggest for the boat came in with 14.09.
Third place team of Steve Eldred and Galen Smith on their biggest 7 for 13.74

Dues is $5 a year. Tournaments are $12 with an optional $5 lunker pot and an optional $10 big bag pot.

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.
