Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report for May 26, 2017




Hi folks, Jason Barber here with the www.kingscreekadventures.com fishing and lake report for cedar creek lake. The lake is full and stained and the water temps are in the 70's.

The crappie are pretty much done with spawning but not completely, you'll still find some fish with eggs on the mainlake but most are postspawn. Fish mainlake docks with deeper water and lots of shade on them and you'll find fish. Brushpiles are another sure bet, find any cover in 12 to 24' of water and you'll find crappie. Jigs and minnows are good whatever you like.

Catfish are starting to spawn so they are still biting but not as good as they have the last 90 days. Try fishing shallow early on points and windy banks but move out to humps quickly and fish 10 to 30' until you locate the blue cats. Channel cats are good near rocks and walls on mainlake... Stinkbait, shrimp, worms and live can all be good for the channel cat. Try fresh cut shad or rough fish for the blues.

Hybrids and sandies are on main lake humps and points in the 10 to 24' range just fish around and use your electronics to locate them. Slabs, swimbaits and crankbaits are all good baits to try.

Large mouth bass are on docks as well as the walls, rocks and weeds adjacent to the docks from the back of coves to the mainlake. You can find some fish holding deeper on points and brush but with fish scattered so broadly the bites are few most days. Topwater can be great right now so always have it handy and be sure to throw it some. Plastics and crankbaits are a good bet daily just throw something until you get bit...

Thanks everyone for reading this report and let's go fish!! 903-603-2047

Cedar Creek Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 17)

EXCELLENT. Slightly stained; 70 degrees; 0.00 feet at pool. Hybrid striped bass and white bass have made a full recovery from the spawn and are now back in the main lake in droves and are on a feeding frenzy. Look for heavy bird activity throughout the lake on flats and near the Dam on edges of drop offs especially on cloudy and overcast days. The Hybrids and Whitebass have started schooling in water from 6-14 feet at the dam and any wind blown shallow point or seawall. Late evening schooling action is also happening in shallow coves and points throughout the lake. Reports of great catches using silver or white slabs and spinnerbaits and retrieving off the bottom at a very slow retrieve to catch these fish in depths of 8-16 feet of water. The crappie have also migrated back into the main lake. Look for them under bridge pylons or under docks where the depths are between 3-10 feet. Guides have been reporting exceptionally nice catches on sunny warmer days. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service.
