Welcome to Toledo Bend Guide Service & Lake Cottage
11/21/2005
Toledo Bend - TX,Huxley
Fishing report
The lake is 162.88 msl, high pool is 172 msl, over nine feet low. Water temp is running in the upper 50s early and warming to mid 60s later in the day. The north end of the lake is stained from high winds and clearing as you go south. Extreme caution should be used running the lake even in marked boat lanes due to the low water conditions. For available ramps you can contact the Sabine River Authority. We are still able to launch at Huxley Bay but it’s one ramp, one boat at a time.
The recent cool front has really turned the fishing on. A lot of limits are coming in across the board- Black Bass, White Bass and Crappie.
Black bass have been coming off C.R. or Texas rigged soft plastics in watermelon flavors and black/blue jigs. Mid to deep diving crank baits are also producing fish. Traps and top water plugs have also been productive. The river and creek channel ledges and drops have been the most productive areas.
The cool water has started to bunch up the Crappie and should only get better as the water continues to drop. Shiners and jigs working.
The Whites are holding on the river channel sand bars in 14 to 20ft of water. ½ to ¾ silver slab spoons and tail spinners working best. No problem getting a limit.
