サマリー
あらすじ・解説
As of November 17, 2024, Lake Sam Rayburn is offering some excellent fishing opportunities. The water is slightly stained with a temperature of around 72 degrees, and the lake level is currently 2.43 feet below pool.
### Weather and Tidal Report
The weather forecast for today is mostly sunny with a high of 80 degrees and a clear night with a low of 51 degrees. There are no significant tidal changes to note, as Lake Sam Rayburn is a freshwater lake.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at around 6:45 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 5:15 PM, giving you a full day to enjoy the fishing.
### Fish Activity
Bass fishing is particularly good right now. Shallow bass are actively feeding on the abundant shad in the shallow waters and can be caught using spinnerbaits, topwater frogs, Texas rigs, wacky rigs, and shallow water crankbaits. There is a large 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 deeper bass, use a dropshot, Carolina rig, or deep diving crankbait.
Crappie are transitioning from main lake brush to creek channels and can be caught on standing timber in 15-27 feet of water using minnows or jigs.
Blue and channel catfish are fair in 24-27 feet of water and in the river bends on cut bait and minnows.
### Best Lures and Bait
For bass, topwater frogs, spinnerbaits, and shallow water crankbaits are highly effective. For deeper bass, a Carolina rig, dropshot, or deep diving crankbait works well.
For crappie, minnows and jigs are the best choices.
For catfish, cut bait, minnows, and stink bait are recommended.
### Hot Spots
- **Shoreline Brush and Hay Grass**: These areas are home to many shallow bass feeding on shad. Use topwater frogs, spinnerbaits, or shallow crankbaits here.
- **Main Lake Ledges and Drains**: Schooling bass are abundant in these areas, particularly in 17-22 feet and 10-17 feet of water. Use a Carolina rig, dropshot, or deep diving crankbait.
- **River Bends**: This is a good spot for catching blue and channel catfish using cut bait and minnows.
Always remember to wear your life jacket and follow local regulations to ensure a safe and enjoyable fishing experience.
