May 16th Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report with BigCrappie.com and DallasFishingCharters.com

We've been catching a lot of fish this month. Crappie have been great on brush piles and docks. We've had some windy days and a lot of rain this month that hurt us some but overall it's been great. Jigs in 6-15 ft around any kind of cover has been the secret. If your good enough to detect small bites than you can catch them.

White bass / hybrid stripers have been on fire. For those people just wanting a tug on the end of the line than these fish give them everything they want and more. Big numbers of fish are still being caught. Check out the recent pics and give us a ring for your adventure of a lifetime.

We operate the biggest and best guide boats on the lake. We employ the most experienced guides and guarantee you'll catch fish!!!

Come join in on the fun!

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 24)

EXCELLENT. Slightly stained; 70 degrees; 0.40 feet above 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.
