I'm planning a trip to Caddo in April, but have heard I should hit up Bistineau as well. The trip is for three days, so I guess I will split the time between Caddo and Bistineau. My question is, knowing those lakes, those times of year, should I spend two days at Caddo and one day at Bistineau or vice versa? Would also appreciate any advice for that time of year. Excited to explore these lakes as they are nothing like what I am used to. TIA

I finally had the chance to make it down to Lake Fork this past weekend, and man—it did not disappoint! Like a lot of you, I’ve spent time scrolling through forums trying to gameplan, so I figured I’d return the favor and share what I saw and learned... plus brag a little about my new personal best! This trip was for a tournament on Saturday. After a lot of map study, I decided to focus on Little Caney Creek. Overall, the fishing was solid, especially if you were patient. There were plenty of buck bass on beds, but the water was pretty stained, so having a good pair of polarized glasses was absolutely essential. Now, I’ll be the first to admit that bed fishing isn’t really my thing, and apparently it’s a lot of people’s thing... because I’ve never seen that many boats in one area doing the exact same thing. Easily 50+ boats targeting bedding fish. It was wild. That said, I had better luck fishing the outside edges of the grass with a frog and a swim jig. The real highlight was landing a Giant (pic below!) on a Booyah Toadrunner—easily my new PB and a bite I’ll never forget. If I were headed back, I might choose a different area just to avoid the crowd, but Little Caney definitely held fish and seemed to have a bit less traffic than some of the more popular creeks. I also went ahead and marked some of the spots where I saw the most beds for future reference. Fork was an awesome experience overall. Just be ready for serious fishing pressure and some of the most educated bass you’ll ever cast at. Hope this helps someone out!

So I am going to be spending two days at lake fork next weekend. I’ve never really targeted big fish specifically but I kind of want to take a day on fork and dedicated it to big baits and targeting big fish. If you were doing that this time of year how would you target them ? I’ll also take any advice or tips on the lake you want to part with. TIA

Taking a trip to PK next weekend. Will be bass fishing for three days and have never been on the lake. Does anyone have any pointers or places to start. The Lake is massive even with 3 days. Does it have grass? TIA

I am a tournament kayak angler with a growing social media presence and have my first opportunity to secure a rod sponsorship. They have responded positively but I don't know how to answer the above question. I don't want to ask for too much but I don't want to leave something on the table. TIA for the advice!

I’m going to Broken Bow lake at the end of October and would love some advice for targeting bass the two days I’m going to be fishing. Would love to find some water that is dingier and not crystal clear. Thanks in advance!

What’s the disadvantage of using staight copolymer for a drop shot. I don’t drop shot a ton but I hate retying leaders when I’m broke off

Thanks for all the advice! I decided to pass after calling around and finding no-one who could work on it if something goes wrong.

I’m not sure the guy would wait. He’s got like 20 other people commenting to be next. Boat is 6500 with spotlock Tm and older helix 8 graph

Which is by far my biggest fear boat looks awesome but not sure if I’m just asking for trouble

115 hp Evinrude Bombardier fuel injected motor. Side says ficht ram injection. I was wondering what the closure of evindrude meant for the motor

Have a chance to buy a 2003 triton tr176 with a 115 evinrude

I started a Kayak Fishing Club and for the first event I tracked AOY points on a Google Sheets spreadsheet. With the second event I realized I might need the assistance of a spreadsheet that calculates and sorts standings automatically or an app. Does anyone have any suggestions for either of those?

Looks like broke the shop at pure fishing

Any word on the Bass Pro Spring Classic Sale?
