Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report for April 18, 2024




Crappie Update:

While the bite has been fair recently, we're thrilled to announce that as of today, things have taken a turn for the better! The Crappie are definitely more active, and dock shooting is the name of the game if you want to reel 'em in! With lots of rain recently and the spillway gates wide open, the Crappie bite has been affected this spring. They've been cozying up under boat docks, and pretty soon, they'll be hitting those brush tops like there's no tomorrow. Jigs have been the MVP bait, but don't count out those trusty minnows either! Pro tip: If you're up for a challenge, try your hand at dock shooting - it can be challenging but oh-so-rewarding!

White Bass & Hybrid Striper:

White Bass action kicked off with a bang just a few weeks ago. Birds diving, hybrids lurking - it was a fishing frenzy! Although it slowed down for a bit, fear not! We spotted some surface action just the other day, and we've been reeling in some solid numbers of White Bass, with the occasional Hybrid Striper making an appearance.

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 14)

EXCELLENT. stained; 77 degrees; 0.00 feet full pool. The 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! Start looking for heavy bird activity throughout the lake on flats and near the Dam on edges of drop offs especially on cloudy and overcast days. Focus on using slabs on drop offs and along seawalls early in the mornings in depth of 5-14 feet. Reports of great catches using silver or white slabs and spinners and retrieving off the bottom at a very slow retrieve to catch these fish in depths of 17-26 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. Shad spawn is nearing an end, but there continues to be a good early shallow bite on and around points and windy shoreline. Drifting in 15-25 feet of water is consistently producing bigger fish. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
