My tournament partner Iain and I fished the lake on 03/23/24 for the Bass Champs TX tournament being held there, as well as the day before for practice. The water temperatures on the lake ranged from 58-65 degrees, with an average of about 62 degrees in most places. The water clarity ranged from about 6 inches of visibility to about 1.5 feet of visibility, and the outside temperatures both days started in the higher 40's and lower 50's, with the high temperatures later in the day being about 75 degrees or so both days. During the practice day, it was cloudy outside with small showers happening periodically, and a steady north wind at about 15-20 mph, and the fish were chewing. We caught them everywhere and doing everything, from carolina rigging in 20 feet, to texas rigging and pitching docks in 5-10 feet, to throwing a chatterbait or squarebill in dirt shallow water, they were eating! However, on tournament day, the bite got much tougher for us as the nightly temperature dropped a bit colder than the night before practice and the sun came out with almost no wind at all. During the tournament day, we were still able to catch a couple on the chatterbait and squarebill (including the 4 pounder pictured with the report courtesy of the squarebill), but had to slow way down after the first few hours of the morning and methodically work a jig or texas rig to get bit up shallow, and our deep bite completely went away. Needless to say, we struggled a bit in the tournament and only had 11.40 pounds on 5 fish, our worst finish and bag by far on Cedar Creek ever. However, we still caught a good amount of fish and a couple nice ones both days and learned a ton, and had a lot of fun while doing it! I hope this report can help you lean on a few out there, good luck!
