Canyon Lake - Freshwater Fishing Report
CANYON LAKE.
LARGEMOUTH are just now showing some inclination to move up out of the 12'-15' of water where they have been and roaming up over 8' breaklines on warm sunny days only to return to the brush and rock piles when a fron blow in. We've been catching some good fish in the deeper water suing 1/4 oz. watermelon or pumpkin
Terminator or Curb's jigs, craw worms and hard jerkbaits along bluff ledges inside of secondary creek points. SMALLMOUTH are spawning right now in 4'-8' over flats along channel breaklines. Good lure choices are 1/8 oz. white or chartreuse Terminator spinnerbaits, 2" Lit'l Fishie Shads, chartreuse 3" Creme Super Tubes and Ice Tea Devil's Tongues.
STRIPERS & WHITE BASS are very good in the upper lake and in the Guadalupe River casting #1 & #3 Terminator In-Line spinners or trolling Spin Traps or shad-type crakbaits or verticlally jigging Pirk Minnows in deeper water.
