Fishing Report for Cedar Creek Lake with BigCrappie.com Chuck Rollins




All the guides have been fishing everyday to stay on a consistant fishhing pattern.  This time of year that is the best way to find and catch more fish. Spring season fishing is constantly changing by the day.  Right now the Crappie are in a pre spawn patteren. You can catch them anywhere between 5-25ft depending on the structure your fishing and the weather. Trips have been very sucessful taking time to work your bait slowly through structure. This time of year can present some tough conditions and unstable weather patterens that somethimes effect our fishing.


Water conditions North end is very muddy and South end is fairly clear.

Crappie we are using 6lb high vis line with mostly jigs. Fishing in 5-25ft in structure. 


WhiteBass/Hybrids, a majority of them, are in most creeks spawing. There are still a few that can be found on main body in 5-20ft of water. Will likely stay in the creek for another couple weeks before returning to the main lake.

Cedar Creek Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (Jan. 29)

GOOD. stained; 48 degrees; 2.80 feet below 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 continue to be deep with a few fish shallow. The water clarity is stained to slightly stained heading south. The best catfish bite is drifting from 18-35 feet using cut shad or rough fish along the bottom. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
