Lake Whitney


Located roughly 80 miles south of the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex, Lake Whitney has become a popular recreational destination with over two million visitors each year enjoying camping, fishing, boating, water skiing, hunting, sight-seeing, and much more. Named the Official Getaway Capital of the state by the Texas Legislature in 2005, the lake terrain resembles Texas Hill Country with towering cliffs, sandy beaches, protective coves and clear blue water.  More Lake Information

Fishing Report from TPWD (Dec. 6)

GOOD. Water stained; 57 degrees; 1.33 feet below pool. Crappie are out in the open roaming main creek channels in 20-25 feet of water with the fish suspending anywhere from 10-20 feet in the water column. The trick this week was keeping a smaller profile while getting the jig down as quick as possible so we bumped up from 1/16th ounce Eyehole jig head from Crappie magnet to a 1/8 ounce with a #7 split shot about a foot above the hook. Cast to fish in open water, so we downsized from the 14 foot diamond series to the 8-10 foot diamond series rod from B'N'M Fishing. Report by Robert Stover, Workingman Crappie Guide. Striped bass are slow, but can be caught on live bait, deadsticking, strolling swimbaits and umbrella-rigs. Fish can be caught from the island to Bear Creek. Report provided by Kraig Sexton, Sexton's Guide Service LLC, Fishing Charter, Marine Electronics & Whitney. Striped bass, sand bass and crappie are being caught on the upper ends on small jigs and slabs worked near deeper holes in the river. Report by Michael Acosta, Unfair Advantage Charters.
