Welcome to Lake
Fork...
the lake everyone is
talking about!
Lake Fork is the hottest bass fishing lake in Texas. Lake Fork also ranks
high on the top 50 list of largemouth bass
caught in Texas. Lake Fork is a great fishing lake for any angler, with
the lake's under-water structure and great vegetation which make Lake Fork
the perfect fish habitat, not only for bass but crappie, catfish and
bluegill. Lake Fork Reservoir has been enjoyed by thousands of bass fishing
enthusiasts. Fishing has been particularly good due to fishery management
efforts of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department who began stocking Lake
Fork with Florida largemouth bass in 1978. Lake Fork was opened for fishing
in the fall of 1980. A new state record largemouth bass weighing 18.18
pounds was caught from Lake Fork in January 1992. The lake has since gained
the reputation of the hottest bass fishing lake in Texas.
