An Introduction to Lake Ray Hubbard



Lake Ray Hubbard is a reservoir located near Dallas, Texas.  This large lake extends into Garland, Texas; Rowlett, Texas; and Rockwall, Texas.  Though is often cited as a recreational lake for wake boarding, general boating, and water skiing, Lake Ray Hubbard is home to quality largemouth bass, but it can be a difficult lake to fish, especially in the winter and summer months, when largemouth bass tend to congregate into specific areas of the lake.  Void of much vegetation and fishable timber, anglers focus their fishing efforts on rip-rap, rocks, bridges, points, and local marinas.

Crankbaits, swim jigs, shaky head jigs, and Texas rigged artificial bait prove extremely productive on Lake Ray Hubbard, especially in the spring, summer, and fall months.  If you visit Lake Ray Hubbard in the summer months, be sure to stay clear of recreational boaters who will disturb your fishing trip.

Note: Rocks and rip-rap are your most productive areas to fish, but prepare yourself for frequent tangles and for losing some fishing tackle.
