Lake Sam Rayburn

Featured Replies

What is the latest on Sam Rayburn?? Hows the water??  What are the bass doing??

Catt hasn't fished the lake, Fishfordollars is busy becoming a grandfather and fishing Conroe and Mattfly I don't know.

Thanks   Dutch

From what I have heard right now there are a few fish being picked up shallow on traps, Numbers are being caught on grass lines on Crig plastics and Jigs.

Its looking like the weather will support a slow warming trend with the highs during the day in the 70's through friday and the lows in the 40's. I expect the Females will be staging waiting to move up shallow. So you should just have to look for staging areas off spawning flats.

I think they are called Dogwoods.    When they start to bloom, the spawn is on.

Been that way for ever in that part of the woods.      Go into Veach Basin, toss weightless senkos on the edges,  if water is clear, try to make casts longer to stay stealthy.    

If you got some chop on the water, put some faith in the spinnerbait, its a limit gitter this time of the year as well.    White, white chartrues, gold blades seem to always do well on Sam.

Levels have been down this year.    That takes the flooded buck brush out of the equation in search of spawners.   That leaves inside grass as next primary area.

Also find the warmest water in that creek,   you should find the shad, if you find the shad, the bass won't be far.     Big girls have moved up due to that great stretch of warm weather, they are feeding hard.
