Coffee Mill Lake

Coffee Mill Reservoir supports a popular crappie fishery. Catfish and sunfish also provide excellent fishing opportunities.

Submerged brush piles along the dam, isolated submerged brush piles, water willow along the shoreline, and some standing timber in the upper end provide cover for sport fish. Native emergent vegetation includes water willow, cattail, and bulrush.

Fish the edge of the water willow and dam with spinner baits in the spring for largemouth bass. Later on in the summer and into fall, go to worms and crankbaits for bass. Crappie fishing is best in the winter and early spring. In the winter the fish are deep in schools near cover and in the spring they move into the shallow shoreline to spawn. Jigs or minnows are baits of choice.

All species at Coffee Mill Lake are managed under standard Texas statewide regulations.
