Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report for January 12, 2016




Hey folks, Jason Barber here with the www.kingscreekadventures.com fishing and lake report for Cedar Creek Lake. The lake level is at just over 2' low and falling and the water temperature is in the high 40s to low 50's. The water clarity is slightly stained to stained heading north.

The crappie are pretty slow having moved out to deeper water, try brush, stumps and any other debris In 16 to 30' and fish slow with Jigs andminnows.

Large mouth are scattered, you can catch fish on docks, rocks, brush or deep structure. Try jigs, crank baits and spinner baits around shallow cover and drop shots and Carolina rigs deeper.

Catfish are good anchoring on shallow water areas on the north end of the lake in 2 to 8' and can be caught drifting on the south end in 20 to 40'. Fresh shad or cut bait is best.

Hybrids and sandbass are on mainlake bait in 25 to 50' of water and should be targeted with shad imitations fished vertically suspended in the water collum 2 to 10' off bottom. Watch the graph and fish accordingly with little or no movement to the bait.

Thanks for reading this report and keep me in mind for your next guided fishing trip

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.
