This report is based off of my most recent trip out to Lake Fairfield on October 23rd, 2021. On this particular day, the lake was right at normal pool and the water clarity was pretty good, as you could see anywhere from 2 - 4 feet down into the water depending on which end of the lake you were on, and if you were on a protected bank or one with the wind blowing into it real hard. We fished all day, starting just before sunrise which was around 6:00 AM, until almost 5:00 PM that afternoon. It was early fall in Texas in terms of the water conditions, as the water temperature was still in the low to mid 70's in degrees fahrenheit, and the outside temperatures were still comfortable enough to fish all day in shorts and a sun shirt, probably in the 65 - 75 degree temperature range all day. The sun this day was high and bright, but there were a few clouds in the sky as well, and the wind was blowing consistently between 10 - 20 mph throughout the day, with gusts reaching up to 30 mph at times. After catching a few fish on a hollow body frog early in the day, we spent the rest of the day covering water with a ZMan Jack Hammer Chatterbait, specifically the 3/8 oz size in the "Spot Remover" color. We would throw this bait down the many weedlines and grass edges/ditches that are all around Lake Fairfield, particularly focusing on grass edges that were in slightly deeper water than the rest, or ones that had a good deal of wind blowing into them. We would just cast the chatterbait as far as we could parallel to the weedline, and slowly reel it back along the edge. Most of our fish were caught in anywhere from 3 - 10 feet of water, and we caught over 50 fish between myself and my 2 buddies I was fishing with that day. Our best 5 on the day would have gone a little over 17 pounds, and our biggest single fish probably would have went a little over 5 pounds. The lake was fishing extremely well and should continue to do so throughout the rest of the fall and winter season.

Using mega 360 I found the grass ending in about 8 foot of water and used a jerk bait parallel with the grass edge

Morning bite was on fire in the grass with the strike king hybrid hunter, caught multiple fish in the 2.5-3.5 lb range. After about 10am the bite slowed down and we caught a few fish dragging Texas rigs on points.
