  • Lake Fork Fishing Report: Memorial Day Weekend Bounty

    Lake Fork Fishing Report: Memorial Day Weekend Bounty
    May 25 2025
    Hey there, folks! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Fork fishing report for this fine Sunday morning, May 25th, 2025.

    It's Memorial Day weekend, so first off, I wanna give a big salute to all our nation's heroes. Also, just a heads-up - there's plenty of recreational boaters out celebrating, so keep your wits about ya on the water today.

    Lake Fork is sitting at about 0.32 feet above pool with water temps holding steady between 73-78 degrees. Water's a bit stained in spots but still relatively clear in many areas despite some recent rains.

    The bass fishing has been GOOD, y'all! These post-spawn bruisers are hitting topwater like nobody's business. Early morning is prime time - get out on those points where the shad are spawning. Diesel chatterbaits, spinnerbaits, and KVD sexy dawgs are tearing it up on the surface. If you're hitting the grass and pond weed in 1-4 feet, throw some frogs and hold on tight!

    As the morning wears on, switch to mid-running crankbaits in the 2.5-3.5 inch range, working points in 5-7 feet. For the afternoon bite, Carolina rigs are producing offshore on points and high spots in the 12-16 foot range.

    The crappie fishing is straight-up dynamite right now! We got a tremendous population of black crappie stacked up on all kinds of structure in 12-28 feet. The white crappie are also loading up on certain trees.

    Catfish are cruising shallow in 2-4 feet, and the big ol' bream have moved shallow too. For you fly fishers, small clousers and wooly buggers are producing some real nice fish.

    Hot spots this weekend? I'd hit Caney Point early for that shad spawn action, then move out to main lake points as the day heats up. The secondary points off the main channels have been holding some real nice post-spawn females too.

    For those wanting specifics, you can't go wrong with the pond weed in the backs of coves for frog fishing, and those offshore humps in 12-16 feet are holding schools of bass that'll make your drag sing!

    Sunrise was at 6:14 AM with sunset coming at 8:27 PM, so you still got plenty of daylight to get after 'em.

    Y'all be safe out there, remember to hydrate, and don't forget to take a youngster fishing if you get the chance. Nothing better than seeing a kid's face light up with their first big Lake Fork bass!

    Till next time, this is Artificial Lure saying tight lines and God bless from the big bass capital of Texas!

  • Lake Fork Fishing Report: Springtime Action and Trophy Potential

    Lake Fork Fishing Report: Springtime Action and Trophy Potential
    May 24 2025
    Howdy folks, this is Artificial Lure with your Saturday Lake Fork fishing report for May 24, 2025. If you’re looking for some springtime action, you’ve picked a fine day—conditions are setting up just right for a memorable trip.

    Sunrise hit right around 6:15 AM and sunset will be close to 8:15 PM, so there’s ample daylight to chase those famous Lake Fork bass. The weather’s classic East Texas May: warm mornings that heat up quick, with a touch of humidity lingering over the water. The lake’s just a hair above pool, and water temps are running between 69 and 78 degrees, ticking hotter late in the day as this recent warm stretch keeps on[1][2][3].

    The bite’s solid with fish active in all stages of the spawn—some bass are still shallow, some guarding fry, and others already pushing to deeper water. Early mornings have been lights-out in the shallows, especially where shad are up spawning. Look for bass feeding aggressively on main and secondary points, particularly around pondweed and submerged grass. A white or black buzzbait, frog, or walking topwater will get you explosive strikes at first light. After the sun climbs, squarebill crankbaits and wacky-rigged soft plastics in three to six feet around wood and shallow cover have been producing steady numbers[3][4][5].

    As the day rolls on, move out to secondary points in 8 to 16 feet and target bass with Carolina rigs, big ribbon-tail worms, or deep-diving crankbaits. Keep your eye out for bird activity—blue herons and gulls can tip you off to the last pockets of shad spawn. For numbers, focus on spots like Little Caney Creek and the points around Mustang and Williams Creek. If you’re trophy hunting, the edges of big main lake points near the dam and the roadbeds by the 515 bridge have given up a few heavyweights lately[3][4].

    Crappie are moving deeper but some keepers are still hanging around brush piles in 12 to 18 feet, especially early. Chartreuse and white jigs have been the best bet. Catfish are shallow and hitting well on cut bait and punch bait throughout the lake’s coves and creek mouths.

    Hot spots today: try the mouth of Little Caney at sunrise for a quick limit, or slide over to Mustang Creek mid-morning to intercept bass moving out. Don’t overlook the deeper channel swings at the main lake points later in the afternoon.

    Best baits right now: white or black buzzbaits, popping frogs, squarebill cranks in shad or chartreuse, wacky Senkos, Carolina rigs with watermelon or plum worms, and XD 5-6 deep cranks. For crappie, go with chartreuse jigs, and for cats, you can’t go wrong with punch bait.

    That’s your Lake Fork report for today. Good luck out there, and if you hook a monster, send me a picture. Tight lines, y’all[1][2][3][4][5].

  • Lake Fork Fishing Report: Post-Spawn Bass Crush Topwater, Crappie Bite Heats Up

    Lake Fork Fishing Report: Post-Spawn Bass Crush Topwater, Crappie Bite Heats Up
    May 23 2025
    Good morning from Lake Fork, this is Artificial Lure with your fishing report for Friday, May 23, 2025.

    It's shaping up to be another beautiful day here in East Texas. We're looking at temps climbing into the mid-80s by afternoon with a light southerly breeze - perfect conditions to be out on the water. Sunrise was just after 6:15 AM and we'll see sunset around 8:20 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to work with.

    Lake Fork is sitting about 0.3 feet above pool level, continuing to hold steady after our spring rains. Water temps have climbed nicely into the 73-80 degree range, with the afternoons seeing those higher readings. Clarity remains good in most areas, with some stain in the backs of creeks.

    The post-spawn pattern is fully established now, with most bass having completed their spawning ritual. They're hungry and active! Early morning topwater action has been outstanding this week, especially around pondweed and shallow grass lines. I've had great success with frogs and buzzbaits in that first hour of daylight. Once the sun gets up, switch to squarebills and wacky rigs around wood in 3-6 feet of water.

    By mid-morning, you'll want to shift out deeper to main lake and secondary points in the 12-16 foot range. Carolina rigs with big worms or lizards have been producing quality bass, and deep-diving crankbaits like the XD series are triggering reaction strikes. The occasional football jig dragged slowly across points has been picking up some larger post-spawn females.

    Crappie fishing has been excellent as they transition to deeper structure. Bridge pilings and brush piles in 15-22 feet are holding good numbers. Small jigs in chartreuse or white have been the ticket.

    Catfish action is heating up in the shallows, particularly in the backs of coves with some timber.

    For hot spots, I'd recommend trying the points around Caney Creek early for that topwater bite, then moving to Mustang Creek's main lake points as the day progresses. The bridge at 515 has been holding good numbers of both bass and crappie lately.

    Remember to keep an eye out for blue herons - they'll show you where the baitfish are active. The shad spawn is tapering off but still happening in some areas at first light.

    This weekend is looking prime for big fish - don't miss your chance to hook into one of Lake Fork's famous lunkers! This is Artificial Lure signing off until next time. Good fishing, y'all!
