Exploring the Next Exit




   For those coming in from the Metroplex, try throwing a twist in your weekend getaway to Cedar Creek Lake by taking the next exit. You may be tempted to enter through the first "Gateway" by exiting off of HWY 175 through the City of Kemp and coming down through Seven Points. While that's always a good choice, there's another "Gateway" and if you keep those tires rolling for another 10 miles, you may be enticed to park it all and take a stroll before hitting the waters.

   Nestled on the East side of the lake, lies the quaint  town of Mabank, full of little gems that will spark your families' interest any time of year.

   So, you did it. You listened to the rambler pressing you to skip your exit. Now what? Now......

You hit up Market Street!!!

   Goodness, I cannot tell you everything in one setting about this amazing little street. This place makes me so happy. From antiques, vintage treasures, beauty shops and the BEST chicken salad I've ever tasted, to fun street music, boutiques, dancing and wine. Market street brings the horse and carriage atmosphere back with a modern meander. 

   Chances are, you will find something you can't live without and you might end up driving home with something strapped to the top of the car. It's that cool. Or you may find something and have to strap the kids to the top. Even cooler. Ha! All jokes aside, be prepared to loosen the reins and embrace the unique charm of this truly, 'The Best Little Market Street'.

Cedar Creek Lake

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.
