Lake Fork Spring Solo #3

We want to encourage as many who can to register Saturday evening to reduce registration numbers on Sunday morning. We will be doing registration Saturday evening from 6 PM-8 PM at our travel trailer directly behind the Minnow Bucket Marina restaurant (first trailer next to the dumpster).

Registration will be conducted at 5:00 AM Sunday morning inside the restaurant, please only one angler per team in registration line and we must observe 6' social distance requirements as well as minimum of 5 anglers in the line inside the store. Others must remain outside until a space opens up.

We also have entry forms and membership forms available just inside the front door at the store that you can grab and fill out prior to getting in line.

$110 Team Entry Includes BB
$50 Optional Side Pot
$40 Membership Per Angler for anglers age 17 or over.

Tournament Hours: Leave Lake Fork Ramp of Choice at 6:05 AM All Fishing Ceases at 3:00 PM and Anglers Can Proceed to Weigh In. The weigh in procedure will be conducted under the pavilion but we cannot have spectators or anglers grouped up under the pavilion.

The weigh in process will be as follows. We will extend the weigh in procedure to 4:00 PM (no need to get chip checked until you approach the scales). We will have room for 2 anglers per tank for a total of 6 anglers at the tanks with anglers staged on opposite ends of each tank. Please remain at your boats until there is a spot open. Once a team has weighed if you feel you are in check range return to your boat/truck and wait until conclusion of the tournament, all others please leave the premises as soon as possible after weighing your fish to reduce congestion on the parking lot. Please no congregating, remain at your boat/truck at a safe distance from all other anglers.

All of our anglers did a great job at last Saturdays team tournament.
I know we can do this and follow all requirements and guidelines from Governor Abbott. Please register Saturday Evening if at all possible. I will have a printed copy of these guidelines for all anglers at registration.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Jan. 15)

GOOD. Water Stained; 47 degrees; 1.66 feet below pool. The bass bite is best on the main lake around humps and ledges in 15-25 feet with Alabama rigs. Mid range bass are fair, suspended on timber in 12-15 feet with jerkbaits and large spinnerbaits. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Lake Fork crappie fishing has been up and down just like the weather the last few weeks. We have settled into the winter pattern and you can find fish from about 18 feet to as deep as you can find. Some fish are just 8-18 feet down on the timber even in sixty-plus feet deep water. You can also find fish down as deep as 45-50 feet on the same timber. We are seeing a lot of fish but we are seeing tons of small fish. Seems like you can pick a bigger fish or two out of a group and then just find you another group of fish. Smaller baits are working well for my boat and 1/16 ounce hand ties on 6-12 pounds fluoro is my best bait in neutral colors. The key is to hold those baits very still and wait for the bite. If you move the bait or the waves move your bait that fish will most likely not bite. You will need to find fish in protected areas if the wind is blowing that day. Minnows and soft plastics will get you bit as well. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
