DeGray Lake:

As of Tuesday, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reports the lake’s elevation was 406.18 feet MSL (Flood pool – 408 MSL).

Local angler George Graves said the surface temperature is in the mid- to upper 40s. The water is muddy above Arlie Moore and clear in the lower end. Bass fishing is fair, but they are deep with the return of cold weather. Fish main lake and major creek points and ledges from 25 to 40 feet deep. The best lures have been a heavy Texas-rigged worm, heavy jig and trailer and a jigging spoon. Use darker colors, such as green pumpkin, on the jigs and worms. Look for any wood or rock cover and fish very slowly right on the bottom. Sometimes the bass will be relating to the bottom in small schools. When you see this, it is the time to drop a jigging spoon. Very little jigging is necessary, in fact all you have to do is every once in a while just lift the spoon and let it drop. The fish will hit when it is standing still. Best areas for bass are between Caddo Drive and Shouse Ford. Crappie fishing is slow at best. A few are being taken on deep shelters in 30 to 35 feet or water. Look for shelters on the main lake or in the major creeks. Fish just above the thickest part of the cover with a 1/16-ounce red/chartreuse hair jig. Be sure to put a crappie nibble or minnow on the jig. Fish the jig very slowly, with little to no action. Bream fishing is fair with most relating to the fish attractors. Fish the same areas you would for crappie, except use either worms or crickets.
