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.

Cedar Creek Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 23)

EXCELLENT. stained; 69 degrees; 0.12 feet below pool. Fishing patterns remain consistent. 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. Reports of great catches using silver or white slabs and spinnerbaits with a very slow retrieve off the bottom in 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. The shad spawn is in full swing, so the early shallow wall bite is on fire all over the lake. Fresh caught shad tossed up to the walls on bottom or under a float are a sure way to catch good numbers of nice eating sized catfish. There is still a deeper drifting bite in 12-24 feet of water using cut shad, drum or carp drifted along the bottom. Many fish being caught in the 10-50 pound range. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
