May 1st Cedar Creek Lake Fishing Report with BigCrappie.com and DallasFishingCharters.com




May is a great time of year to fish.  Generally most of the big cold fronts have already come and when they do they affect the fishing less.  Our crappie fishing has been great overall.  I expect this month to be even better.  With crappie moving out into deeper water we can catch them over brush tops with a few boat docks mixed in. 

White bass have been excellent this year.  Limits have been common with some bigger fish showing up on main lake points and humps.  If you are looking to catch a lot of fish these are the best way to go.  We use artificial bait and it's pretty easy fishing even for beginners.

Water temp is 72 and still a little stained.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Jun. 11)

GOOD. Water slightly stained; 81 degrees; 0.46 feet above pool. The hybrid striped bass and white bass bite is on fire and with fish on a feeding frenzy! Start looking for these fish on flats throughout the lake and on edges of drop-offs, especially on cloudy and overcast days. Focus on drop-offs and along seawalls early in the mornings in 5-14 feet of water with slabs. Reports of great catches in 17–26 feet of water using silver or white slabs and spinnerbaits off the bottom with a very slow retrieve. The crappie have also migrated back into the main lake. Look for fish under bridge pylons or under docks in 3-10 feet. Guides have been reporting exceptionally nice catches on sunny warmer days. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. Numbers of catfish can be caught targeting humps in 10-20 feet of water, but there are a lot of small fish. Bigger fish can be caught drifting cut shad, carp, drum or bream. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
