Lake Ray Hubbard

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 16)

GOOD. Water stained; 68 degrees; 0.07 feet below pool. White bass are post spawn relating to structure on humps, long points and drop-offs around shallow flats. White bass are still being caught in the feeder creeks above the lake. Small roadrunner type baits and small crappie jigs are catching fish. Crappie are good with numbers showing up in the creeks and shallow water especially on sunny days that warm the shallow water. Minnows are working best, but cork and jig with long poles around cattails are starting to produce. Catfish are good on the north end of the lake on long points and around timber 15-24 feet using prepared stink baits. After these rains, stage your boat in front of feeder creeks as the running water will bring the cats in. Chumming will help bring the schools into your areas. Report by John Varner, John Varner's Guide Service.
