jonboat...I'll have to take you and show how to fish I guess...you saw the 6lber I took out and the others weren't all that small that I pulled out the rest of the day either. Fish slow and the bite is soft. Be patient and use the right color worm.

What would the solution be about Cedar being overfished johnboat?
Fished it Sunday from 7-12. I thought the lake was turning over as well. Dark lookin around dam, murky in upper 1/2 of lake. Caught one fish on rattletrap just after you go under the bridge off the riprap. That was the only bite all morning. threw buzzbait, spook, spinnerbait, rattletrap, fluke, jig, and 7in powerworm. Never saw one fish blow up on shad and saw only couple shad move in the very back of the creek past the bridge.
I haven't been down there in over a year, due to all of the dumbass' that run up and down the lake, cutting you off, running wide open fifty or sixty feet away from you. Don't think I'll ever go back.
Although known for big fish, I would rather fish in a mud puddle -- and Cedar is only 15min from my house. I used to love that lake, but I have to take the stance that everyone else in this post is taking: the pressure makes it an absolute dump. I used to try and go every chance when my father-in-law was willing to go but now I would rather sit at home, fish farm ponds, or fish elsewhere. To me, the money put in for the extra gas, mileage, and time is well worth not having to deal with Cedar Creek and the ignorance that takes place there.
I know it goes on everywhere, but I would rather be on a big lake where it might not happen right in front of you........How can you get a piece of mind and/or relaxation when you have to worry about people cutting you off or hounding you when you catch fish?

I agree to all of the above posts. Lets start a boycott Cedar campaign. Everyone reading this please stay away from Cedar. I'll do my part and continue to go, only to police the lake and keep people from putting in at the ramps. I'll cover the middle ramp, and I'll need two volunteers for the others.![]()
Hate to hear you guys bad times over there, but that DOES open a couple more parking spots. To me fishing is relaxing, so I try to just go with the flow. I view it like dating (as a teenage), get rejected once and stay home the rest of your life watching the other guys have all the fun? Heck no baby- I'M IN!!!!!!!!!!!
You do make a good point. Im not completely done with cedar and i will go back. I love just being out there relaxing too, but a fish every now and then does make it nice.Hate to hear you guys bad times over there, but that DOES open a couple more parking spots.

The fish are definitely in there. I just don't want the hassle of 250 boats on a small lake to deal with. Like I said earlier, I would rather fish a big lake where getting cut off and boats hounding you once you start catching them won't occur right in front of you.
My friends in Lex keep telling me how great Cedar is but the crowd's ruin it for me. They left way too much crap in that lake and it limits spots fisherman can try when 250 boats are on the water. Every bank near a river channel has 4 boats fishing a 100yards of space.
Well i guess your just to good for me... haha anyway we should go together sometime and fish.
