Norfork Lake Fishing Report 8-23-24

There was a good walleye and white bass bite this morning. I started out vertical jigging a 3/4 ounce Many Shad Binks spoon. Got to land one walleye and several big white bass in the dark. At about 6:30 I switched to trolling #9 Flicker Minnows at about 30 ft deep. I was jigging my […]

  Well, I am still among the living and starting to get out on the lake a little more often. I actually fished last Friday and then again on Sunday. I wanted to see how the striped bass were acting. I was down in the dam area and found lots of stripers in 70 to […]

Jodan and I made it out on the lake this morning. She slept in until 5AM so we made it to my first spot by 6AM. We were both moving slowly. LOL The first area was a large, rounded point on the main lake. I made two passes on the drop off and only landed […]

July has been really busy for us at the resort, so fishing has taken the back seat for the time being. I have been able to get out once or twice a week, but not my normal 5 to 6 days a week. Yesterday, my granddaughter and I headed to the dam area to look […]

Well, it has been a while since you have heard from me, but resort business is keeping me busy. I have managed to get out on the lake the last several days. 3 days ago, Jordan and I headed down to the dam area to see if we could hook into a striper or two. […]

I got to fish with my daughter, Keri, this morning. I headed to the same creek as yesterday. There were not as many fish today and they were somewhat finicky. I will blame it on the east wind. LOL We had the opportunity to land 2 bigger fish, but one came unhooked then Keri landed […]

I am finally back on the lake, but July is a difficult month for me to be on the lake too often. I will be out there on occasion. Once I found the fish this morning at around 6AM the bite was quite good for a short period of time. I landed a really nice […]

I have fish the last 2 mornings. Today was great but yesterday was a bust. LOL Yesterday I was fishing a deep-water creek on a creek channel swing. I found lots of striped bass 40 to 70 feet deep. I was sitting in roughly 70 feet of water. The fish would not bite. I had […]

Norfork Lake Fishing Report 6-21-24

I have been on an every other day fishing regiment. Work keeps interfering with my fun! I was out on the water this early morning and looked at a few flats to see if the stripers had moved in. They did not, at least I could not find them. I headed to a main lake […]

Norfork Lake Fishing Report 6-19-24

I started out fishing around 4AM this morning. My first spot was a bust even though I brought in some bait by dropping my green light. Very few fish showed up, so I moved to a main lake point in 100+ feet of water. Dropped my green light again and the bait showed up. There […]
