Report by Guide Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork Guide Service. The Lake Fork crappie fishing continues to be hot even though the temperatures are dropping each week.

Crappie are holding in 10-20 feet on brush. Catfish are fairly shallow on nightcrawlers and prepared baits but are working deeper and are lethargic recovering from the spawn.

Here is the latest Fishing Report as provided by Texas Parks and Wildlife for Aug. 30.

Crappie were fair around main lake boat docks on chartreuse jigs and catfish were fair on cut bait and stink bait around river channel bends. Report by Riley Hindes, Angelo State Fishing Team.

Lake Fork crappie fishing is about as hot as I’ve ever seen the winter fishing. Not only is the bite good out on deep timber but the number of fish stacking up is incredible.
