Lone Star Marina in Tool offers full service; owners want to lease out old Tiki Hut restaurant, club

Lone Star Marina in Tool offers one of the few boat launching sites on Cedar Creek Lake these days.

The drought has lowered the lake to the point that many boat launches are inoperable until the lake fills up again. It is now almost five feet low.

Lone Star Marina offers boat launching and return for $10. Lake residents who want to take their boat to home docks can launch one-way for $5.

The marina is at the location of the former Don's Port Marina that closed two years ago.

Lone Star Marina has dredged the area and installed floating docks for boaters' convenience. Amenities include boat rentals, a ship store, slip rental, fuel, boat service and repair, boats for sale, waterfront properties for sale and floating dock sales.

Mike Miller, the owner of Lone Star Marina, is offering full service at the marina, but the old Tiki Hut restaurant remains closed. Miller is searching for a business operator to lease the once-popular restaurant and club.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Jul. 9)

GOOD. Water slightly stained; 85 degrees; 0.26 feet above pool. Big numbers of white bass and several trophy-class hybrid stripers have hit the deck. We are consistently finding the best action in 15–22 feet of water. Good go-to setups include a variety of slabs, sometimes paired with 2–3 jigs above, and the always-reliable yellow bladed jig using the proven saw tooth retrieve technique. Trolling spoons at 3 mph in 13–17 feet of water absolutely crushed the white bass. Water temperatures are currently holding around 83 degrees and will continue to rise as summer heats up over the next couple of weeks. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. Fishing patterns remain consistent. Catfish are good anchoring on humps in 12-24 feet using small shad or cut shad on the bottom, or drifting larger cut carp, drum or big gizzard shad on flats in 10-25 feet all around the lake. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
