Long Cove Announces its Newest Facility - The Long Cove Marina - Will Serve Entire Cedar Creek Lake Community




DALLAS – June 17, 2015 – Long Cove is excited to announce details of its newest facility, The Long Cove Marina. The facility will be open to the public, serving the entire Cedar Creek Lake community. Construction is underway on the marina, which is located adjacent to the Highway 198 bridge, just south of Caney City. Long Cove is the popular, family-friendly community, offering both finished homes and custom homesites along with a variety of luxury resort-style amenities and services.

The first phase of the marina will include dry stack storage for 75 boats, a fuel dock, ship’s store and a maintenance facility. This will be the first marina on Cedar Creek Lake with dry stack boat storage. Boats will be taken in and out of the water on forklifts and stored in a 4-story steel building.

“We are pleased to bring a new and needed marina to the Cedar Creek Lake community,” said Long Cove President Chris Kelsey. “We are certain the entire Cedar Creek Lake community will benefit from the facility’s services and convenience.”

Future phases of The Long Cove Marina will include dry stack storage for up to 400 boats and is anticipated to include a restaurant, which also will be open to the public.

Long Cove broke ground on the marina in early spring with plans to open in time for the busy summer season; however, excessive rain-related delays have set completion back to around Labor Day.

For more information about the marina, or for information on Long Cove’s luxury waterside cottages or lakefront homesites that are now available, contact Ashleigh at 214-220-4924 or [email protected].

Cedar Creek Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (Dec. 18)

GOOD. stained; 55 degrees; 3.76 feet below pool. 55-57 degrees; 3.71 feet below pool. The hybrid and white bass winter deadsticking bite is now in full swing! 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 the deepest water 35-50 feet. 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. You will find the fish suspended between 22-28 feet when deadstricking. Look for birds and loons early mornings as the fish will come up to follow the bait and feed early especially on cloudier/colder days. The crappie bite has been getting better. Target crappie with small jigs and minnows in 7-15 feet under bridge pylons, hidden brush piles throughout the lake or under docks. Crappie fisherman have been moving spot to spot finding limits. Lots of crappies in the 7-9 inch range. Limits of crappie will happen but you may catch a lot of small ones getting to your limit. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. The shallow bite continues to be good for catfish along wind blown banks and points near the mouths of major creeks where the actual creek runs into the lake. Due to the low water you can only get a few hundred yards away. Fish in 2-6 feet with fresh shad anchored on bottom. The deep bite is also good dragging bigger cut shad or rough fish in 15-30 feet drifting main lake flats. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
