• Where to Fish on Caddo Lake

  No depth figure has reached our records, which makes a plummet useful. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Points where the flooded channel swings in are the reliable ones. Records held for Comanche County cover largemouth bass, green sunfish, Rio Grande longear sunfish and bluegill. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. Anyone new to Caddo Lake should walk it once before setting up.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 38°F and July at about 82°F, the water has a wide range to work through. Fish stay active all year, but they move with the heat. Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer squeezes it into the edges of the day. February into May fishes hardest as the water warms. The season on Caddo Lake follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. There is somewhere to leave the car, half a mile off. Toilets show in mapping about half a mile away. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. Should this one be busy, Sun Set Pool is 0.6 miles off. Check the current arrangement for Caddo Lake.
