Beautiful sunset I captured on Lake Sam Rayburn in 2013
Crystal Simmons I live in Lumberton. I love photography, especially nature and wildlife. One of my favorite places to be is at Lake Sam Rayburn amongst the tall pine trees and beautiful lake. View all my photos

Water Level Details
GOOD. Water stained; 62 degrees; 5.99 feet below pool. The magic water temperature is 67 degrees for the spawn. The water is muddy north of the Texas State Highway147 bridge. Navigate with caution to avoid sandbars and stumps. Bass are in the grass lines in 4-20 feet of water biting soft plastics and spin baits. Spawn appears to be deeper due to the water draw. This will eliminate a lot of sight fishing. Crappie are slow. Report by Captain Lynn Atkinson, Reel Um N Guide Service. The bite bass bite has been fantastic! Large waves and groups of fish shallow from 10-15 feet deep as well as large numbers of fish shallow 1-7 feet deep. Primarily fishing a Carolina rig, medium diving crankbait, and Texas rig in 10-15 feet. Cast rattletraps, chatterbaits, and lightweight Carolina rigs up shallow. Report by Captain Hank Harrison, Double H Precision Fishing.
