Lake Comanche near Comanche: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  Lake Comanche is a Comanche County water, Texas side. It stands 1,378 feet above sea level. The water covers some 242 acres, so pick a bank rather than trying to cover it all. A shoreline of some 2.4 miles keeps the choices simple. Comanche lies 5.2 miles from the water. De Leon is 20 miles away, with Early at 22 miles. The nearest edge is a long way off, so local rules apply throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lake Comanche

  Without a survey to go on, judge depth from how the bank falls away. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. A reservoir gives you a hard edge, a shelf, and not much else. Lake Comanche gives up its fish to patience rather than distance. Watch the surface for movement before setting up.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 82°F in July and bottom out at 44°F in January. Fish stay active all year, but they move with the heat. March through May is the strongest run, with autumn a second stretch. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. Lake Comanche fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. No made access appears within a short radius, so plan to park on a verge and walk. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. If the gate is shut, Lake Eanes at 3 miles is the nearest alternative. For Lake Comanche, the notice at the access point is the final word.
