April 18th Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report with BigCrappie.com

Water Temp is 71 degrees.

Crappie and white bass have been great overall. We've had a couple of off days tossed in but overall it's been good. Boat docks & brush piles for crappie have been the pattern. If you knew how to shoot the jig good then you likely did well. Brush tops are still yielding a lot of short fish but that will change.

White bass have been on fire with limits of fish being very common. We're just bouncing slabs and picking up fish off the bottom, It's very fast action at times. If you're looking for action then these fish are what you are looking for.

Crappie and white bass should remain great for the upcoming month.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Jul. 2)

GOOD. Water slightly stained; 87 degrees; 0.07 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. Catfish are good anchoring on humps in 12-24 feet using small shad or cut shad on the bottom. Drifting larger cut bait like carp, drum or big gizzard shad on flats in 10-25 feet all around the lake. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures. Anticipate increased boater traffic this weekend as we celebrate our Nation’s Independence Day.
