The weather is finally cooling off and it is definitely affecting the fish. Fishing is improving on Lake Fork but is still pretty slow on most days for size. This month I will be running trips on some nearby lakes as well as on Lake Fork. There are some very good smaller lakes in the surrounding area that get much less pressure and still offer some big bass!

Fish are in the fall transition right now. Many are on their way to shallow water. Because we have had such a gradual cool down, some deep fish are still holding on offshore structure, however there aren’t enough fish in deep water to make that a viable pattern in my opinion. 

This month we will be focussing on shallow water. Swim jigs, chatterbaits, swimbaits, and Texas rigs are among the techniques that are effective right now. 

If you would like to enjoy some fall fishing, let me know! I still have a few weekdays left this month. Keep in mind that November is one of our best months and I have some good dates still available.

Here are some fish we caught on our last two trips.
