East Fork at night

OHSKS · September 16, 2009, 04:48:07 PM

Got a nice 4 lber fishing a drop off with a Flitterbait at 10 pm. We caught a few smaller bass with the same bait during the day casting up against the shore and by fishing drop offs with structure. Got 8 all together all on the Flitterbait.

Oh ok thanks lipp looks like a rattle trap

NO rattles. I like this bait because it can be worked deep with a lift drop, or cast and reeled. Most of my bass have come with the lift drop fishing structure on a drop off.

Thanks OHSKS

Looks just like the size shad that are swimming thick in there too, match the hatch

OHSKS · October 07, 2009, 12:27:27 PM

The flitterbait is about 2 inches so it does match the millions of 2 inch shad that are in East Fork.

Good to see others on here that fish East Fork too. I live in Bethel close to the east side of the lake.

Hey Chip you got any fish in there

Fish_myster · October 07, 2009, 04:38:19 PM

There is good un's in that lake but hard to catch at times. Shad heaven for sure, plus them Wipers tear up the young bass too. Lot's of crappies and cats in the mix too.
I like shooting them carp at night with my fishin' bow

now that's fun

Fish_myster, you do live close. You can just about spit and hit the lake.

I know its a old topic but I live within 10 mins of east fork myself in Bethel and I was on east fork last night testing out the boat and I am ready to see if this lake has fish in it.

Maybe I will meeet a few of you around the lake from here

I've heard some good bassin stories from East Fork. There is supposedly a 7-8 lber in there that just keeps growing. Good luck catching up to this beast, Deerhunter.
