COVER/STRUCTURE
Native
pondweeds are abundant in Big Cedar Creek and along the south bank of
the Chambers Creek arm. Hydrilla is scattered along the south bank of
the Richland Creek arm from Midway Marina west to the railroad trestle
and from 7L ramp south to Pin Oak Creek. The old Trinity River levee
forms a crescent-shaped underwater structure between the confluence of
the Richland and Chambers creek arms and the dam.
FISHING
TIPS AND TACTICS
Largemouth bass
anglers should look for fish congregated around underwater structure
where they can be caught with jigging spoons and deep-diving
crankbaits. Crappie anglers will have success with
jigs or
minnows near bridge crossings and in the abundant timber in the upper
Richland and Chambers creek arms. Catfishes are
everywhere; cut bait, stink bait, chicken livers, and worms are all
productive. White bass and hybrid stripers
are active from the 287 bridge to the dam. Use a graph recorder to find
schools of shad or follow the birds to find schooling activity. Heavy
jigs or slabs work well when fish are deep.
