Thread: Palestine or Fork

Haven't fished either one for crappie in some time where's some good startin places Men?

Yep me too! Let us know how you do.

I have done very little on Fork but the little I did was great. Put in at the public ramp by the Minnow bucket, go right there under the bridge. Always did good on Minnows and Jigs.
Hey Flatfish, Have you been out to the East Dam (Tyler) where the just dropped all the bamboo yet? Just wondering, they dropped 5 gal buckets with 15ft bamboo in them in late june.

Yea I found them no fish on them though That lake is so hot the fish are scattered in the hydrillia shallow hard to find them in any groups been kinda slow catching a few nice one's though just ready to try some different water!!Grandson ready for new water also!

Talked to Quicksilver this afternoon. We're going up to LOP and try to scout out some more brushpiles and maybe catch a few also.

Good luck let Me know How You do going there next week to put out some brush and run the side scan all abouts.

It was a tough day on Fork Saturday not 1 crappie lake was tore up looked like a drag boat series going on I forgot why I quite fishing in the warm weather up there went to Gilmer lake ,got into a lot of green carp their!

Should have gone to Gilmer. Where did you fish at up there?

They had the flood gates wide open at Pines and the fishing sucked because of it. I also took a big ol cedar to sink out there but that turned into a real big hassle. You would think a 80 lb bucket of crete would sink a stupid tree but nope! We probably had to tied another 100 lbs of rock to it to get it under water. I sure hope it stays put. Whew me and the old man were pooped after that fiasco!

On the bright side my boy got to go out with us and he sure had a good time in Mr. Van's boat even though we struck out in the fishing department.

Man I here Ya had to sacrafice a boat anchor 1 morning to get the pile to go down did pretty good at Tyler today I believe this weekend was tough everywhere when they got them gate's open it's history on the lake side Ya'll should have went down the river to the pump station You might have done good their!
