Sam Rayburn Fishing Report: Transition Time as Bass, Crappie, and Catfish Patterns Shift [131 characters]

  • サマリー

  • Good mornin', folks! This is Artificial Lure comin' at ya with your Sam Rayburn fishing report for Wednesday, May 7th, 2025.

    We're lookin' at another gorgeous day here in East Texas. Sunrise was about 6:30 AM, and we'll see the sun dippin' down just before 8:00 PM tonight. Lake conditions are holdin' steady with water temps hoverin' around 73-74 degrees. The lake's sittin' just a hair above normal pool at about 0.06 feet above, and we've still got that typical spring stain to the water, but nothin' that'll mess with your fishin' plans today.

    Bass fishin' has been GOOD this past week, though that shallow bite is definitely in transition now as the last of the spawners are wrappin' up their business. What we're seein' is most quality largemouths have shifted to the 8-14 foot range, holdin' tight to ledges, humps, and especially that old timber. If you're headin' out today, I'd recommend riggin' up a big ol' worm on either a Texas rig or Carolina rig. With the lack of grass and lily pads so far this season, you'll want to focus on wood structure and submerged timber.

    Crappie and catfish are still doin' that spawning dance, movin' between shallow and deep water. The sweet spot has consistently been in that 4-12 foot range. Minnows under corks close to trees has been money for those beddin' fish. Some crappie are startin' to move toward brush piles, but that bite ain't quite reliable yet.

    For those of y'all lookin' for some hot spots today, I'd recommend tryin' the ledges and humps near Harvey Creek or the old timber stands over by Powell Park. The north end of the lake has been producin' some quality catches as well.

    Bait-wise, besides the big worms for bass on those Texas and Carolina rigs, don't forget your crankbaits and swim jigs if you're fishin' upriver in the shallower water. For crappie, minnows under corks are still the ticket, especially around those trees where they're beddin'.

    Catfish have been bitin' well in 15-26 feet of water. Cut bait and minnows have been workin' just fine for them.

    Remember, we're in that transition period now as we head deeper into May, so be ready to adjust your tactics as those fish move from their spawning grounds to their summer patterns. The next couple weeks will be mighty interestin' as everything settles into the summer rhythm.

    Y'all tight lines today, and don't forget to send me your catches! This is Artificial Lure signin' off from beautiful Sam Rayburn. See y'all on the water!
