OK some people didnt like it when I put this on Guist thread. I spent my first day fishing on Cedar 03/27 yeaterday. I must say I was impressed. caught lots of fish on jig and spinnerbait. all fish were largemouth from 2.5 to 4 lbs. Water temp was 47 to 50.5 degrees.

Well I finally got my first day of fishin on Cedar. I must say I found me a honey hole. I caught fish on a jig and spinnerbait. In several different locations on the lake. I ran into another fisherman that really helped after I told him it was my first time on the lake. I watched him catch 2 fish while we were talking so I had to believe him. It was a simple pattern to follow. I caught quiet a few fish yesterday 03/27 and most was his pattern. When he caught up with me I offered him a steak dinner for the help. Needless to say I had a blast. At launch water was 47 degrees, 49.5 by midday and thats when I found this nice fisherman. I talked to 2 other boats that had over 10 fish. NO KEEPERS however. But when ya go to a lake in this part of the state, this time of year and catch a dozen or so fish from 2.5 to 4 lbs, it makes ya wanna go back for more. And I am thinking Friday will be the day. Bass report on Cedar from me is outstanding fishing. Loved it.

I know that. I dont ever take nuttin on here serious. Wish ya had been with me too. You ever fish Cedar or Herrington ?

What was the water temp. you were catching in? Also how deep were the fish? Is the lake back up? They had it down 5-10 feet to put in a beach. Thought I might give it a try. I would like to catch some nice fish and have some fun doing so.

Fishgurl - isn't this your home lake so to speak? Heard anything from the locals lately?

[gettingonefishin]

Caught fish all day 47 to 50.5 degrees, fish caught in 3 ft to 12 ft range, spinnerbait fish were suspended in 18 ft water. I am a local only live 35 miles from Cedar. I will be visiting there more often after yesterday. I was told yesterday that it gets better just before spawn. I dont know if I could stand that or not. I dont know if the lake is up or down. Dont have any idea where the usual water line is.

The lake is at the normal water level and has been for a month or a little more. Have been geting 5 to 10 fish a trip with a good kicker fish in the mix. Front of lake is clear and the creeks have good color to them.

This week on Kentucky Afield they're having their annual fishing call-in show. It would be good if they (KDFWR) would address Cedar Creek Lake and how it has progressed in the eye's of KDFWR as a trophy fishery, and to also ask them what's up with the beach, who's idea was it and why...
