Where would I find Cedar River?

In Iowa, it falls inside Black Hawk County, 830 feet up. Reckon 4.3 miles to Evansdale and 5.1 miles to Cedar Falls. Ask in town if the track is passable after rain.

Which fish live in Cedar River?

Across Black Hawk County, recorded fish include bluegill, channel catfish and largemouth bass. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water.

Is there a depth figure for Cedar River?

Depth is missing from the records we hold. Local practice says any change in gradient changes where fish sit. Levels move the fishing about more than temperature.

Does Cedar River lock up in winter?

Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer and winter test it. Look for the thaw near late March; the fishing lifts straight after. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about late March until roughly early December.

Is Cedar River open to the public?

Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. Posted signs at the access point override anything written here. Leave the bank as you found it.

How close can I get the car to Cedar River?

Parking is not provided for, going by the mapping. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. A change of water often beats a change of tactics.
