About Cedar Bayou
Cedar Bayou cuts through Texas, United States and offers classic river fishing. The local patterns are the universal river patterns: fish the heads of pools at first light, the deep slow water in the middle of the day, and the tail-outs as light fades. Light tackle and a careful drift go a long way at Cedar Bayou — heavy splashes spook a whole pool.

Fishing Techniques
- For Red drum
When fishing structure, cast upcurrent and let your bait naturally drift down.
- For Northern red snapper
When fishing for Northern red snapper, use heavy tackle and braided line to handle their strong runs and the structure they inhabit; also consider chumming to attract them to your area.
- For Bonnethead shark
Use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs when fishing for Bonnethead sharks, as they have sharp teeth.
