Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report for December 2, 2015




Hi folks, Jason Barber here with the www.Kingscreekadventures.com fishing and lake report for Cedar Creek Lake. The water level is just over full and the temperature is in the low 50's. The water clarity is stained to muddy heading north and the fish are biting!

The crappie are still under the deeper boat docks in 6 to 15' and in brushpiles in 12 to 24' of water. Jigs and Minnows are both good baits it just depends on personal preference.

Large mouth are on docks pretty good and can also be caught on shallow rocks. Jigs and spinners are good as well as crank baits. You can still catch fish offshore on brushpiles with jigs and Carolina rigs and you can go shallow and get bit in flooded grass too you just have to explore and conquer.

The catfish are good drifting the mainlake in 20 to 40' with fresh cut bait and can also be caught shallow on the north end in 3 to 10' of water. Shad or cut rough fish is good for either application.

The hybrids and Sandies are moving deep and can be found in 25 to 40' of water, try dead stiking shad imitations vertically below the boat while watching the graph. Make sure you make some noise to attract the active fish.

Thanks as always for reading my report and please don't hesitate to contact me for a guided fishing trip. 903-603-2047

Cedar Creek Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 1)

EXCELLENT. Slightly stained; 75 degrees; 0.43 feet above 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! 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. The hybrids and white bass have started schooling in water from 4-14 feet at the dam and any wind blown shallow point or seawall. Late evening schooling action is also happening in shallow coves and points throughout the lake. 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 8-16 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. Catfish are excellent the first couple hours of the day on retaining walls where the shad are spawning using fresh cut or whole shad on a bobber or with a light weight. The bite slows as the day progresses because the catfish are feeding heavily at first light. Later in the day target catfish on the first drop-offs in 5-15 feet of water.
