  • Fishing Hot Spots at Lake Sam Rayburn After Recent Rains
    Jan 5 2025
    As of January 5, 2025, Lake Sam Rayburn is offering some exciting fishing opportunities, especially with the recent rain affecting the water levels and clarity.

    First off, the lake level is on the rise due to the recent rain, and the water is slightly stained, particularly in the creeks and upriver areas, with a temperature of around 60 degrees. The lake is currently 1.15 feet below pool level[1][4].

    For today, the sunrise is at about 7:20 AM, and the sunset will be around 5:20 PM. There isn't a tidal report to consider since Lake Sam Rayburn is a freshwater reservoir.

    Fish activity has been quite promising. Bass are moving shallow into the bush and grassy areas with the new water, making crankbaits and swim jigs good choices for catching them in these shallow waters upriver. Crappie and white bass are also active, moving upriver, while catfish are biting well in 15-26 feet of water on cut bait and minnows[1][4].

    For largemouth bass, focus on areas with vegetation edges, flats, and creek channels, especially in the lower part of the reservoir where the water is clearer. During this time of year, bass are active for longer periods of the day, making crankbaits and spinnerbaits effective. For crappie, jigs and minnows are excellent, targeting shallow areas around vegetation during their spawn and deeper waters around brush piles and creek channels otherwise[2][3].

    Some hot spots to consider include the areas around submerged aquatic vegetation, standing timber, and flooded terrestrial vegetation. The upper third of the reservoir, though less vegetated, offers good habitat around timber, brush, laydowns, and creek channels. Man-made fish attractors also provide additional structure[2][3].

    In summary, with the rising water levels and slightly stained water, Lake Sam Rayburn is a great place to be for some productive fishing. Target bass in shallow waters with crankbaits and swim jigs, crappie with jigs and minnows in vegetated areas, and catfish in deeper waters with cut bait and minnows. Enjoy your day on the lake

  • Lake Sam Rayburn's Promising Fishing Opportunities for January 4, 2025
    Jan 4 2025
    As of January 4, 2025, Lake Sam Rayburn is offering some exciting fishing opportunities despite the slightly challenging conditions. Here’s what you need to know for your fishing trip today.

    ### Weather and Water Conditions
    The weather is mostly cloudy with a high of 57 degrees and a low of 51 degrees tonight. The lake level is on the rise due to recent rain, sitting 1.15 feet below pool. The water is slightly stained, with clarity being slightly muddy in the creeks and upriver areas.

    ### Fish Activity
    Bass are actively moving shallow into the bush and grassy areas with the new water. They are particularly active upriver in shallow waters, where crankbaits and swim jigs are proving effective. Crappie and white bass are also moving upriver, while catfish are biting well in 15-26 feet of water on cut bait and minnows.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise today is at around 7:20 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 5:20 PM. These times are crucial for planning your fishing day, especially since fish tend to be more active during these periods.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For bass, crankbaits and swim jigs are the go-to choices in the shallow waters. For crappie, jigs and minnows are highly effective, especially near submerged brush piles. Catfish are responding well to cut bait and minnows in the deeper waters.

    ### Hot Spots
    Areas like the Angelina River, Cany Creek, and Ayish Bayou are known hotspots for bass fishing. For crappie, the submerged brush piles near the lake’s dam are prime locations. These spots offer a mix of vegetation, timber, and creek channels that attract a variety of fish species.

    ### Recent Catches
    Yesterday, bass were found moving into the shallow waters, with several catches reported in the 2-4 pound range. Crappie and white bass were also plentiful upriver, and catfish catches were consistent in the deeper waters.

    Overall, Lake Sam Rayburn is in good shape for fishing despite the slightly muddy waters. With the right lures and knowledge of the hot spots, you should have a productive day on the water. Just remember to check the local fishing regulations and ensure you're not spreading zebra mussels by draining your boat's water when leaving or approaching the lake. Happy fishing

  • Lake Sam Rayburn Fishing Forecast: Rising Levels, Active Bass, and Bountiful Catfish
    Jan 3 2025
    As of January 3, 2025, here’s what you can expect if you're heading out to Lake Sam Rayburn in Texas.

    First, let's talk about the conditions. The lake level is on the rise due to recent rain, and the water is slightly stained, especially in the creeks and upriver areas. The water temperature is around 58 degrees, and the lake is currently 2.29 feet below pool level.

    For today, the sunrise is at 7:12 AM, and sunset will be at 5:23 PM. There's no tidal report to worry about since Sam Rayburn is a freshwater lake.

    Fish activity is quite promising. Largemouth bass are active, chasing shad in the shallows and off points. If you can find grass on the south end, crankbaits are your best bet. Crappie and white bass are moving in the river channel but aren't stacked up like usual. Catfish are doing well in 15-26 feet of water on cut bait and minnows.

    For bass, use crankbaits, spinnerbaits, or topwater baits, especially during early morning and late evening when the fish are most active. For crappie, jigs and minnows are excellent choices, particularly around submerged trees and brush piles in deeper areas. Catfish are biting well on cut bait and minnows in the river bends and creek channels.

    Some hot spots to consider include the south end where you can find grass, and the river channel for crappie and white bass. Brush piles and creek channels in the upper part of the lake are also productive, especially for bass and catfish.

    Remember to check the local fishing regulations and to drain water from your boat to prevent the spread of zebra mussels. Good luck out there
