I have been a full time Lake Fork Guide since February 1996 and I want to share with you my fish catching secrets that I have accumulated after all these years on the lake. Lake Fork is known all over the world for it’s trophy bass fishing. However, Lake Fork is full of giant crappie, blue catfish and flathead catfish. On this channel we are going to teach you the techniques that I as a Lake Fork Guide use to catch these species.

    I know you have live scope. I've seen you use it many times. I really appreciate you doing a crappie fishing video that didn't involve live scope. It's so refreshing. It gets boring, as a viewer, watching EVERYONE but Richard Gene, and now you, looking at dots on a screen to catch their crappie.

    This spring has been very odd. We are still not having warm nights which I think is keeping them off the banks. Hopefully we will get some warm stable weather to push them in. I fish Tawakoni and the fishing has been very sporadic so far.

    • @CATCHAHAWG

    Try downsizing to a 1/16 ounce and if using a weed guard trim a few off to make it easier for the crappie to get a hold of it.

    Hey Gary great video. I went last Saturday and we only caught 8 crappie but they were scattered all over the place. Still haven't found that honey hole yet. Lake Jordan where I mostly fish is a deep lake and I'm still trying to figure those rascals out.

    • @CATCHAHAWG
      @CATCHAHAWG  Рік тому

      Hey Glenn it’s been a strange spring over this way for sure. I busted them for about 10 days straight and then it changed . Hopefully you’ll get on those fish soon over your way 👍

    • @UnLikeU

      Fished 2 different lakes last Easter Sunday & Monday Glenn. Me & a buddy caught over 120 Crappie. ALL CAUGHT 30-12 FEET OF WATER... Fish are STAGGING.. The MALE have run up shallow to build beds.✌️

  • @byrde4329
    @byrde4329 Рік тому +1

    This video was very helpful! I've been bank fishing a 4 acre pond and was absolutely slaying them about 6 weeks ago in maybe 6 feet or so of water when the daytime temps were in the 40's. Now it's been 60-70F and I can't seem to catch 'em near the bank. Lots of bass and bluegill but no crappie...

    • @CATCHAHAWG
      @CATCHAHAWG  Рік тому

      Those crappies get in and get out fast. And cold fronts can really turn them off quickly. Ive abandoned the shallow water bite with my customers. It’s way easier for me to get them limits in the deeper water where they aren’t affected as much as the shallow fish when the weather changes. Thank you for commenting I really appreciate it 👍

    • @CATCHAHAWG
      @CATCHAHAWG  Рік тому +2

      Man I have to think that east wind after that front must have changed the barometric pressure or something. I’ve had to fish deep lately to really do any good.

  • @im_godbody9690
    @im_godbody9690 Рік тому +2

    Everytime the crappie bite gets going good something (weather water temp water conditions) messes up their rotation. A good majority of the crappie here still are full of eggs. I’m in east Texas.
