Norfork Lake Fishing Report 6-11-24

Glen, a good friend and I had a great early morning striped bass fishing. We both were using Tater Shads. I was using copper rose and Glen started out with key lime. After I landed my third striper Glen switched to copper rose and started landing fish. It is really funny on how color patterns […]

I have not been out on the lake since Tuesday and probably will not be on it until Sunday or Monday. I should be going through withdrawals by that time. I hope I can survive it. LOL Some of our guests are having a great time catching striped bass, hybrid bass, crappie, walleye and largemouth […]

I had lots of fun this early morning. or as my wife would say late last night. I was out fishing at a little after 4AM. I dropped my green light down about 10 ft and within about 20 minutes bait was surrounding my boat. I have attached a photo of my live scope image. […]

The lake was calling my name this morning so I was out with my bait in the water at about 4:AM. My green light was down, and the bait started coming to the light fairly quickly. It wasn’t long until the predators showed up and I was catching fish. I was using my normal in […]

Amanda and Ben are having a blast. After seeing how well a green light draws in bait yesterday, Ben found one locally and was using it this morning. They caught their thread fin shad just by dipping a landing net into the school of bait fish. Sure beats casting out a big heavy cast net. […]

A couple of us at Hummingbird Hideaway Resort had a great day fishing for striped bass. I was on the lake around 4:30AM. I set out my green light on a main lake bluff wall point to draw in bait. A small school of bait came to the boat, but not the number that I […]
