Lake Fork TX Fishing Report Feb 10 2025 Chilly Weather Bite Still On for Largemouth Bass Crappie
Hey there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on the fishing scene at Lake Fork, Texas, as of today, February 10, 2025.
First off, let's talk about the weather. It's a chilly and wet morning with patchy rain nearby, temperatures hovering around 42°F, and a chance of rain at 71%. The wind is coming in from the ENE at about 11 mph, and the barometric pressure is at 30.27 in. This kind of weather can make the fish a bit finicky, but it's not all bad news.
Sunrise today is at around 6:54 AM, and sunset will be at 5:53 PM, giving us a decent window to get out on the water. Now, let's dive into the fishing conditions.
Lake Fork is currently at 0.40 feet below pool, with water temperatures at 49 degrees and the water stained. This setup is still favorable for catching some quality fish. Recently, we've seen some impressive catches, including a 9.63-pound largemouth bass caught by Max Nwanebu on January 1, and a 10.08-pound bass caught by Steve Eldred on January 2[3].
For largemouth bass, the pre-spawn bite is starting to kick in, especially with the warmer forecast for the rest of February. Focus on creek bends, drop-offs with flooded trees, and rocky banks on sunny days. Alabama rigs are working well offshore around road beds and long points in 18-23 feet. For shallower fish, try using chatterbaits and square bill crankbaits in 3-5 feet around channels and ditches. Viper XP jigs and Texas rigs are also fair on big wood near channels in 5-10 feet[1].
Crappie fishing is also improving after the recent cold snap. These fish are scattered, so you'll need to cover some water to find them. They can be found in water deeper than 20 feet, often around timber, brush, bridges, and open water where they're chasing shad. Artificial baits seem to be outperforming live bait right now because they sit still in the water, which is what the crappie seem to prefer in these cold conditions[1].
As for hot spots, I recommend checking out the areas around the creek bends and drop-offs, especially where there are flooded trees. The road beds and long points offshore are also productive, especially with Alabama rigs. Another spot to consider is the big wood near channels, where Viper XP jigs and Texas rigs can work well.
In summary, despite the chilly and rainy weather, Lake Fork is still offering some great fishing opportunities. Be patient, move slowly, and use the right lures to increase your chances of landing some trophy-sized fish. Stay warm and tight lines
