Lone Star Lake

Channel catfish are present in moderate abundance with sufficient numbers of fish available for harvest. White bass and hybrid striped bass are also present, with many legal-size fish in the population. Largemouth bass are moderately abundant with good numbers of legal-size bass. Spotted bass are present in low abundance.

Structural habitat is sparse and comprises flooded timber, brush, creek channels, and rip rap. Aquatic macrophytes are present, but in low densities. Aquatic macrophytes are present at low densities, less than 3% of the total.

Largemouth bass fishing at Lone Star Lake peaks during spring pre-spawn when fish move to shallow flats and points — work Texas-rigged soft plastics, lipless crankbaits, and spinnerbaits for best results. Catfish are productive year-round; cut shad, chicken liver, or prepared stink bait fished on the bottom near structure produces steady action from spring through fall. Target crappie around any available timber or brush piles with small jigs or live minnows — late winter and early spring are prime when fish move shallow to spawn.

All species at Lone Star Lake are managed under standard Texas statewide regulations.
