Lake Fork is Texas's #1 trophy bass lake. It has produced more ShareLunker bass (13+ pounds) than any other lake in the state. The flooded timber and managed habitat create ideal conditions for growing giant largemouth.

The lake's slot limit (16-24 inches must be released) has helped build and maintain the trophy fishery. Spring is prime time, but quality fish are caught year-round.

Small towns around the lake — Quitman, Emory, Alba — cater heavily to anglers with bait shops, guides, and cabin rentals.
