  • Chilly Conditions at Lake Sam Rayburn: Bass, Crappie, and Catfish Forecast for November 23, 2024
    Nov 23 2024
    For Lake Sam Rayburn on November 23, 2024, here’s what you can expect:

    First off, the weather is looking a bit chilly after the recent cold front, which might slow down the bite some. The water temperature is around 70 degrees, and the lake is slightly stained with a level 2.44 feet below pool.

    Sunrise today is at about 6:45 AM, and sunset will be around 5:15 PM. There’s no significant tidal activity to worry about on Sam Rayburn since it’s a freshwater lake.

    Bass fishing has been good, especially in the shallower areas. Shallow bass are actively feeding on shad and can be caught using spinnerbaits, topwater frogs, Texas rigs, wacky rigs, and shallow water crankbaits. Target areas like shoreline brush, hay grass, high spots, shallow ditches, and creek channel swings. For schooling bass, look around main lake ledges in 17-22 feet, main lake drains in 10-17 feet, and main lake and secondary points. Here, a dropshot, Carolina rig, or a ½-¾ ounce jig can be effective.

    Crappie are transitioning from main lake brush to creek channels. You can catch them on brush piles with minnows or jigs. Blue and channel catfish are fair in 24-27 feet of water and in the river bends using cut bait and minnows.

    Hot spots include the areas around shoreline brush and hay grass, particularly early in the morning when bass are chasing bait. Also, focus on main lake ledges and secondary points for the schooling bass.

    For a successful day, bring along a variety of lures such as spinnerbaits, topwater frogs, Texas rigs, wacky rigs, shallow water crankbaits, dropshots, Carolina rigs, and jigs. Live bait like minnows and cut bait will also be effective for crappie and catfish.

    Remember to check the lake level, which is expected to continue dropping slowly through the winter, and always drain your boat to prevent the spread of zebra mussels. Good luck out there

  • Great Fall Fishing on Lake Sam Rayburn - Hot Topwaters, Ledge Baits, and Crappie Transitioning
    Nov 22 2024
    For Lake Sam Rayburn on November 22, 2024, here’s what you can expect:

    The water is slightly stained with a temperature of 72 degrees, and the lake is currently 2.43 feet below pool level. The weather has recently seen a strong cold front, but it's expected to stabilize, making for a good fishing day.

    Sunrise is at around 6:45 AM, and sunset will be at about 5:15 PM. There are no significant tidal changes to worry about on this freshwater lake.

    Bass activity is quite strong, especially in the shallow waters. Shallow bass are actively feeding on the abundant shad, making spinnerbaits and topwater frogs highly effective. You can also catch them using Texas rigs, wacky rigs, shallow water crankbaits, and topwaters around shoreline brush, hay grass, high spots, shallow ditches, and creek channel swings. For deeper bass, target main lake ledges in 17-22 feet, main lake drains in 10-17 feet, and secondary points with Carolina rigs, dropshots, and shaky heads.

    Crappie are transitioning from main lake brush to creek channels and can be caught on brush piles with minnows over jigs. Blue and channel catfish are fair in 24-27 feet of water and in the river bends on cut bait and minnows.

    For hot spots, focus on the areas around the mouth of creeks and offshores flats where bass are schooling and chasing bait balls. The hay grass and flooded bushes early in the morning are also prime spots for catching bass using chatterbaits, swimbaits, or frogs.

    In terms of specific lures, shad-colored bladed jigs, finesse jigs in natural colors, and 6-7 inch line through swimbaits are working well. For crappie, use minnows, plastic jigs, or hair jigs in 13-21 feet of water on or close to structures.

    Overall, Lake Sam Rayburn is offering a great fall fishing experience with plenty of active fish and various effective lures to choose from.

    ### Weather and Water Conditions

    Bass are quite active, particularly in the shallow waters. You can find them centered around shoreline brush, hay grass, high spots, shallow ditches, and creek channel swings. These shallow bass are feeding heavily on the abundant shad in the area and can be caught using spinnerbaits, topwater frogs, Texas rigs, wacky rigs, and shallow water crankbaits[2][3][4].

    There is also a significant population of schooling bass chasing bait balls around main lake ledges in 17-22 feet, main lake drains in 10-17 feet, and main lake and secondary points. For these schooling bass, use a dropshot, Carolina rig, or deep diving crankbait.

    Crappie are transitioning from main lake brush to creek channels, and they can be caught on brush piles with minnows over jigs. Blue and channel catfish are fair in 24-27 feet of water and in the river bends on cut bait and minnows[2][3][4].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For bass, topwater frogs, spinnerbaits, and shallow water crankbaits are excellent choices for the shallow waters. For the schooling bass, a dropshot, Carolina rig, or deep diving crankbait works well. Crappie can be caught with minnows over jigs on brush piles, while catfish are best targeted with cut bait and minnows[2][3][4].

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Shoreline Brush and Hay Grass**: Early in the morning, target these areas with chatterbaits, swimbaits, or frogs to catch bass chasing bait.
    - **Main Lake Ledges and Drains**: Look for schooling bass in 17-22 feet and 10-17 feet of water around main lake ledges and drains. Use a dropshot or Carolina rig here.
    - **Creek Channels**: Crappie are transitioning to these areas, so focus on brush piles with minnows over jigs.
    - **River Bends**: For blue and channel catfish, head to the river bends in 24-27 feet of water and use cut bait and minnows.

    With the right lures and knowledge of the hot spots, you should have a productive day fishing at Lake Sam Rayburn. Remember to check the local regulations and ensure you're not spreading zebra mussels by draining water from your boat when leaving or approaching public fresh waters.
