GOOD. Water Stained; 43 degrees; 1.68 feet below pool. Bass are very slow but the bite is fair on Alabama rigs over deeper water 20-25 feet around baitfish. Suspending jerkbaits are fair in 7-12 feet around channels and big wood. 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.
