Lake Sam Rayburn

Fishing Report from TPWD (Mar. 20)

GOOD. Water stained; 62 degrees; 5.44 feet below pool. Bass are in the grass lines in 4-15 feet of water biting soft plastics and spin baits. Some can be caught in the drains with crankbaits and jigs. Crappie are transitioning to the pockets to spawn. White bass are up the river. Catfish are in the creeks hitting cut bait off the bottom. The water is stained and water levels are low, so navigate with caution watching for sand bars. 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.
