Thanks all for the info....I'll get a map and might hire a guide for one day to get familiar with the place. Plan to bring a camera and get some nice pictures of this historic place also. I can fish my home waters of Toledo and Rayburn anytime, this is more of an adventure. Thanks again!

I agree with rayzor. Fishing is good anywhere on Caddo. Save your money. My son guided on Caddo. He was amazed at the people who didn't want to try to fish by themselves. Just drop your TM and fish. Even with the lake markers it is easy to get lost. Have fun

Boat4Life, I'm not saying you need or have to hire a guide, but I am saying lake is getting low and in some of the boatlanes its not but a foot deep and yes some do have a stray stump or two in or "very" close to being in the lane. Yes "fishing" is good anywhere on Caddo, but "catching" is a different story. Talk with some of the locals where you are staying and they should be able to help you out some. Good Luck and enjoy beautiful Caddo Lake!

If you are not familiar with the lake I would suggest hiring a guide for at least a half day to get on a pattern. The problem with Caddo is the whole lake looks like it will hold fish but thats not the case. If you want to catch fish, hire a guide. If you want to take pictures, don't hire a guide.
This is coming from a local, Caddo is the most finicky lake i've ever fished.
