Fishing Report from TPWD (Jan. 29)

GOOD. Water Stained; 43 degrees; 1.75 feet below pool. Bass are fair suspending jerk baits, spinner baits, and square bill crankbaits around creek channels in 5-10 feet. Offshore bass bite is fair with Alabama rigs, spoons and dropshots in 17-22 feet. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Lake Fork crappie fishing has been as up and down as the weather and wind. With surface temperatures in the low 40s some crappie seem to be in shock. If you can get a day with light winds it seems the bite is a little better. If the winds are howling you may want to get some work done around the house or work on tackling that day. Downsizing baits and lines are helping to get a few more bites. Small minnows, small hand ties and small soft plastics are the key until we see the bite pick back up. Hold those baits super still just above crappie and they will either bite or swim off. If they swim off it’s time to find fish that will bite. Don’t spend too much time on one set of fish once the active bitters are caught. We are seeing huge numbers of fish as we cover water. Timber and brush in 20-62ft are holding fish in the mid lake and south areas. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
