Canyon Lake - Freshwater Fishing Report
CANYON LAKE
LARGEMOUTH have moved into a typical summertime pattern
along deeper ledges. There is shortlived early shallow
water action along chunk rock banklines in 4'-12' using white/chartreuse 1/8 oz. Terminator spinnerbaits,
plastic jerkbaits and 1/4 oz. Rat-L-Traps. As the sun gets higher move to shaded bluff ledges working 8'-15'
with Devil's Tongues, 2" Lit'l Fishie Shads and firetiger crankbaits or watermelon Scoundrel worms on
secondary points. STRIPERS are holding over humps in 40' of water. Drifting live perch is taking a few fish each trip.

"numbers lake". Fishermen should be able to catch a lot of bass in the 14" to 18" class easily by fishing very early around rocky creek points using 1/8 oz. Terminator buzzbaits, 1/4 oz. Green Perch Terminator
spinnerbaits, 1/4 oz. Rat-L-Traps (or other shallow running crankbaits). As the morning progresses switch to watermelon or Ice Tea Scoundrel worms, plastic jerkbaits or 3" (Creme Lure's) Super Tubes fishing them along the front on boat docks with 6'-12' of water. Bass in the 4 to 8 lb. class are feeding primarily very early and late along lake points with stumps and laydown. Watermelon Terminator jigs, buzzbaits/spinnerbaits and watermelon or Ice Tea Devil's Tongues, 5" watermelon lizards & plastic jerkbaits are all good choices.
