Fished Lake Monticello today with my friends and fellow Lake Fork guides Ronnie Kelley and Andrew Grills to see what the lake looked like after the rains last week and to do a little "fun fishing". Water clarity was really good, and water temps ranged from 57-60 degrees in both the upper and lower ends.… Read More »

Lake Fork is still turning over, and the fishing remains tough (for the most part). The best bite seems to be shallow, and if you can find some submerged vegetation, you will find some fish. The lake is sitting at 399.36 or 3.64 ft below normal pool. Water temps have been in the mid-80s, but… Read More »
