I still guide on the lake some between tournaments and in the fall.  This video is part 2 (second consecutive day) of my first trip to Lake Fork since March 2nd and how it went, what I observed and what I caught fish on.  I found the lake to be quite &#8220;tricky&#8221; and sporadic action through the day.  <\/p>\n<p>Gear: <\/p>\n<p>Strike King Rage Craw &#8211; Green Pumpkin Purple Gold and Candy Craw<\/p>\n<p>Strike king Shimmie sticks &#8211; Green Pumpkin<br \/>\nStrike King KVD Sexy Frog &#8211; Bone and Stump Jumper <\/p>\n<p>Rods: <\/p>\n<p> Lew&#8217;s Team Lite 7&#8217;2&#8243; Heavy<br \/>\nLew&#8217;s Custom Speed Stick 7&#8217;6&#8243; Heavy<br \/>\nReel: Lew&#8217;s Custom Pro, 7.5:01 gear ratio <\/p>\n<p>Hooks:  Owner Hooks Offset Wide Gap 4\/0 XXX-strong<\/p>\n<p>Braid:  Strike King Tour Grade Braide 50lb Green <\/p>\n<p>Thank you for watching!
