Sam Rayburn Fishing Report
- Sep 28, 2022
- FAIR. Water stained; 82 degrees; 5.02 feet low. The lake is off-colored and starting to turnover, slowing the bite while the lake transitions. Look for fish to feed on shad in the pockets as the cold fronts start to roll through. Bass are good shallow and the creek channels chasing shad. White bass are schooling on flats biting small crankbaits and silver spoons. Crappie are good on brush piles with minnows. Catfish are good off points with and in the creek channel. Report by Lynn Atkinson, Reel Um N Guide Service.
