Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report for 10/5/2011

by Jason Barber, Fishing Guide

I started my career as a professional Bass fisherman in 2000 and claimed my 1st B.A.S.S. victory on the famous Sam Rayburn reservoir in 2002 and finished 3rd place in my first B.A.S.S. Tour event in Florida in 2002. I am currently a full-time fishing guide and offer my services on Cedar Creek Lake and surrounding lakes.

Cedar creek is 7ft low and falling with water temps in the low 70's and falling. The fish are on the move. The catfish are beginning to move shallower into the 5 to 10' ranges. Try fresh cut shad or shrimp drifting or anchoring. The crappie are still holding on brushpiles and bridges in 10 to 20' minnows or jigs will work.

Bass can be found around boathouses with any water under them as well as on rocks or brush. Try from 1 to 15'. Rat-l-traps and spinners are starting to produce as well as soft plastics.

The hybrids and sandies are still hanging around the mainlake humps and will hit slabs or trolled crankbaits. look in the 8 to 16ft range start by marking the bait and fish on your graph and then present your baits.
