I am planning a spring fishing trip to Lake Fork, but a friend of mine was told that the hot spot is Choke Canyon.  Can you help me make an informed choice before I commit to a location, guide and lodging.  Thanks everyone.

I've never been to Lake Fork, but Choke can put out BIG numbers in the spring as well. You may struggle if you aren't a grass fisherman, but if you get a guide you should be OK. Stanky's Guide Service just had a couple of clients pull out a 40 + pound bag, so they're in there!

Thanks.. I assume there is some size to those guys to with a 40lbs bag!!

 

Rayburn ?

I actually second that... I mean, if you're gonna make the trip lol

January 2nd BFL Sam Rayburn 1st place 40 lbs 10 oz. 

 

Rayburn kicking out 40#+ on a regular basis ?

Adding fuel to the fire ?

 

Sam Rayburn Reservoir. Angler Travis Moore reeled in the 13.44-pounder using a Carolina rig during the Bass Champs tournament Saturday January 9.
 

Wow that is some lunker... ? I'll look into Rayburn, thank you for the tip.  I have a fishing partner I need to share this with, we need to make a decision soon.

So if I point my truck/boat straight South and don’t stop for 17 hours and 10 minutes I’ll be there.  And leave this ?!?  Ha!

Wow what is that white stuff, we don't get that here in Phoenix! 

 

but then again I haven't seen any 13 pounders taken here either. 

 

Might pay to point the truck and boat towards Texas  LOL

 

 

Catt was right with the Rayburn suggestion, there's no way y'all can go wrong down there... Feel free to PM me for a couple of great AirbBNB suggestions in Zevalla if y'all end up going that route.

Thanks Troxbox, I'll do that if we wind up heading there. ?
