Fishing Report from TPWD (Nov. 20)

GOOD. Water Stained; 70 degrees; 2.22 feet below pool. The bass bite is slowing due to the cooler mornings, with water temperature 65 degrees. Topwaters are fair around grass and pond weed. Some fish are coming on chatterbaits, and spinnerbaits out in front of the grass 3-5 feet. Best bite is shaky heads in 3-7 feet around wood or docks. Carolina rigs are fair on ridges and long points in 5-10 feet. Small baits are working best. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Black bass are sporadic around vegetation. Small streamers and top water patterns are catching active fish chasing bait. Catfish are shallow around boat houses and brush. Report by Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork. The crappie fishing on Lake Fork is just phenomenal right now going into the early winter months. Fish are throughout the lake in 14-58 feet. We are seeing some black crappie grouped up in numbers. The huge white crappie has been showing off the past month also. We are catching fish on timber mostly and pole timber and Bois D Arc trees are both good. Some fish will be holding to bridges as they migrate as well. Minnows continue to be the best bait, but jigs will work too. The catfish bite on Lake Fork is nothing short of incredible. There are so many catfish in the 20-25 feet range around timber you can almost fish anywhere. If you drop some cattle cubes or sour grain in an area you will be catching fish within 30 minutes on any prepared catfish bait you drop down. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
