Fishing Cedar Creek Lake with BigCrappie.com Lake and Fishing Report




CRAPPIE: Excellent / Good We have been catching lots of nice Crappie in 6-15ft of water lately. Jigs on 6lb line has been producing very good. The bite is light so watching your line is important. WHITE BASS:Excellent Big numbers of White Bass have been common on main lake points lately. HYBRID STRIPER: The Hybrid Striper have been heating up on Cedar Creek also. We have been catching Hybrids up to 8lbs. FILL THE FREEZER!!! MIXED FISH TRIPS These trips are focusing mainly on CATCHING FISH of every species. White Bass, Crappie, Hybrid Striper and Catfish. These trips are a lot of fun because you get to experience different techniques and fishing patterns for several different types of fish. The MOST bang for your buck! WHAT ARE THE FISH GOING TO DO NEXT????? Crappie: The crappie are now on brush, and after a good two months worth of spawning, boy are they hungry! Morning and afternoon have both been very successful, as the fish are now completely refocused on eating. The next couple of months should be nothing short of awesome, as we enjoy mild temperatures, and calming winds. Our crappie bite should remain excellent well into July, and then it picks back up in October. White Bass and Hybrid Striper: Both species have been readily available, as our fish return from the creeks with growling bellies. All that swimming around trying to find a mate makes for some hungry fish, which makes our jobs that much easier. We are starting to catch fish on very shallow points, and they should be surfacing within a matter of days. If you've never got to start your day with a couple of acres of fish jumping around you, then I suggest you book a trip sometime in the next couple of weeks. We are on a great hybrid striper bite right now, and we will be the first to tell you, there is not a harder fighting fish in freshwater. Catfish: Our catfish are getting ready to spawn, and have been visiting some very shallow water in search for shad. Cedar Creek has an excellent blue cat fishery, which allows the fishermen to fill their freezer in a very short time. A 2-5lb blue cat is second in taste only to the crappie, but fights so much harder. If you're interested in catching catfish, please let us know at the time you book your trip, so we can ensure that we have freshly caught bait on the boat.

Cedar Creek Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (Nov. 20)

GOOD. normal stain; 68 degrees; 3.32 feet below pool. The recent storms slowed down the fishing just a bit. Still finding hybrids and white bass on midlake points and drop offs along sandy flats throughout the dam area, Crappie Island, Key Ranch and the spillway humps in 11-17 feet. Cast spinners and slabs and look for schooling fish on these flats as well as deeper seawalls and shorelines. Fish any hump in 14-22 feet throughout the lake to find fish stacked up in schools as the day warms up. Look for schooling fish on cloudier days. Use spinnerbaits or drop a slab down to the bottom and work it fast up and down and the fish will hit it immediately. Also throwing out a slab and reeling it back with a slow retrieve is also working well. Cast rattle traps, Spoons,Umbrella Rigs, slabs or sassy shads to get the hybrids to bite. The crappie bite has been getting better. Target crappie with small jigs and minnows in 5-12 feet under bridge pylons, hidden brush piles throughout the lake or under docks. Crappie fisherman have been moving spot to spot finding limits. You may catch 4-5 and then have to move on to another spot on some days. Limits are being reported, although guides have been reporting conditions are improving with bigger sized fish being caught. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. Catfish are good on shallow flats in the mouths of the major creeks and the adjacent points and shorelines are holding fish in 2 -6 feet, or with fresh shad anchored or drifting on mainlake flats in 12-24 feet. This bite should hold up for another month or so. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
