As of October 27, 2024, Lake Fork in Texas is offering some excellent fishing opportunities despite the ongoing lake turnover in the mid-lake area. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Weather and Water Conditions
The water temperature is hovering around 81 degrees, with the lake level at 2.29 feet below pool. The water clarity is good in the mid-lake to south areas, although some parts are stained due to the fall turnover.
### Weather
Today, expect a mostly sunny day with a high of 78 degrees and a low of 53 degrees tonight. Sunrise was at 7:37 AM, and sunset will be at 6:37 PM.
### Fish Activity
Bass fishing has been good, especially early in the morning. Topwaters like Berkley Bullet Pop or J-Walker are effective around grass and points after sunrise. As the day progresses, switch to lipless crankbaits like the Berkley Square Bull in areas with grass and timber lines in 4-6 feet of water. For deeper waters, Carolina rigs with a 7”-10” Berkley Powerworm are working well on points in 12-14 feet.
Crappie fishing is improving as the water temperature drops into the 70s. Focus on structures like brush piles, laydowns, bridges, and road beds, particularly around the edge of timber and creek channels. Minnows, small hand ties, and soft plastics are all producing good results.
Catfish are abundant around timber in depths from 18-58 feet, attracted to smelly prepared catfish bait, chum, cattle cubes, or sour grains.
### Hot Spots
- **Grass and Timber Lines**: Early morning topwater action around grass and points has been consistent. Use small topwater lures or streamers on windy banks for schooling bass.
- **Dock Fishing**: Docks are providing a variety of fish, including bass and catfish, using small beaded fish imitations.
- **Timber and Creek Channels**: For crappie and catfish, focus on the edge of timber and creek channels, where fish are congregating as the water cools.
### Best Lures and Bait
- **Topwaters**: Berkley Bullet Pop, J-Walker, and Berkley Choppo.
- **Lipless Crankbaits**: Berkley Square Bull and the new “Jack” lipless crankbait.
- **Soft Plastics**: Texas-rigged Berkley Powerworm in 7”-10” sizes.
- **Crappie Bait**: Minnows, small hand ties, and soft plastics.
- **Catfish Bait**: Smelly prepared catfish bait, chum, cattle cubes, or sour grains.
With the cooler weather setting in, Lake Fork is shaping up to be an excellent destination for both novice and experienced anglers. Enjoy your time on the water
