Cedar Creek Lake Crappie & White Bass Fishing Report For March 24




Crappie have been all over the board lately. We’ve seen great days and we’ve seen tough ones. This is typical of March with big temperature swings & high winds with every cold front. As April approaches we should start settling into a steadier pattern and big stringers of fish.

White Bass have made a move into the creeks to spawn. The main lake has been somewhat tough fishing for the White Bass. Expect that to change in about 2-3 weeks as we see more fish showing up. Forecast for late March is great. We have better weather on the horizon and warm temps which will surely have the fishing good again.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Feb. 26)

GOOD. stained; 52 degrees; 0.12 feet above pool. The pattern is consistent. The hybrid and white bass winter deadsticking bite is on fire! 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 35-55 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 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 has been tough with reports of fish being scattered. 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. Catfish can be caught in shallow water near creek mouths, or drifting in deep water with cut shad. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
