OCTOBER 23RD 2018 CEDAR CREEK LAKE FISHING REPORT WITH DALLASFISHINGCHARTERS.COM AND BIGCRAPPIE.COM




October 23rd 2018 Fishing report for Cedar Creek Lake Last week we received almost a week of cold 50 degree rain and the lake went from 2ft low to over full pool with the flood gates opening. Our water temp went from 84 to 66 degrees during that time also. That’s a major cool down for a week. Luckily the fishing has remained solid overall. The crappie & white bass got a little tougher but I’ve still managed to limit on the last three crappie trips since it’s stopped raining. I saw the first group of Loons on the lake today. They are here early this year due to the cooler than normal weather.

The crappie are still holding on brush, docks, & bridges in the 6-20ft range depending on conditions and the location of where your fishing. The north end of the lake is 3-4 degrees cooler than the south end. Creek arms are also cooler with water temps in the mid 60’s. The white bass are holding in 10-20ft of water off main lake points and humps. They can be caught on spoons & other shiny baits presented at there depth.

Cedar Creek Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (Mar. 12)

GOOD. stained; 58 degrees; 0.10 feet above pool. The bite is consistent. The hybrid and white bass deadsticking bite will be here for just a few more weeks while the water temperature increases with the warmer weather. The white bass and hybrids will be making their run into the creek arms and will settle in along shallow points and shallower water to lay their eggs for spawning. Use half ounce to 1-1/2 ounce jigs with 4-5 inch plastic flukes depending on what the winds are and drift long lengths of the lake in 22-36 feet of water. Drift at speeds of .2-.6 mph using your drift mode on your trolling motor or using drift socks. If the winds are not too bad you can just drift with the wind. Thumping on the bottom of your boat will attract fish and group them up underneath as you drift. Utilizing a splasher also works well with thumping. Try smaller sized plastics as the bite will be smaller sized baits. Look for Birds and Loons early mornings on shallow flats as the fish will come up to follow the bait and feed early especially on cloudier and colder days. The crappie bite is on docks and in creeks with minnows or jigs. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. Still shallow around creek mouths and also drifting random depths 10-40 feet with cut shad or rough fish. Water is stained and surface temps are in the mid to.high 50's lake is full. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
