Richland Chambers Lake Fishing

Guide Service on Richland Chambers Lake | Navarro County Fishing

Renee Caperton, CRB, ASP: Real Estate Agent in Corsicana, TX

insel Guide Service is a licensed full time fishing service serving major Texas lakes such as Richland Chambers, Lake Limestone, & Lake Fairfield. Fish comfortably in a 2006 22 foot triton with a 2008 250hp Mercury Optimax pro/xs. All Ages are welcome.

Richland Chambers Reservoir - 44,752-acre lake located East of Corsicana off Hwy 287 and is known as the "blue cat hotspot."

Best Seasons:
Blue Cats: October - May
Crappie: May - September
Hybrids: Spring/Fall


This is the lake for cats and hybrids and when it comes to this lake - Keith Ginsel knows his fish. He has been highlighted in Fishing & Hunting News (Richland Chambers, It's a smorgasbord out there, "Cats & Hybrids" July 8 - Aug 5, 1999 pp 21-22). Writer Luke Clayton covers Keith Ginsel and his guide service and Ginsel's ability to understand their habits. Ginsel is quoted as saying, "Catching blue cats is relatively easy, finding them is the trick," and finding them is not a problem for him. "Knowing where they school, and what they bite is essential," he says. "Blue cats commonly run 1-8 pounds, but catching fish over 10 isn't uncommon. This tid-bit sums up his blue cat catching ability; Ginsel is quoted as keeping track of fishing for blue cats in late May of 1999, and on eight trips to Richland Chambers he had a total "poundage" equalling a few pounds shy of a ton, giving new meaning to having a "ton of fun!"

Ginsel has also been highlighted in:

  • Fishing & Hunting News (Richland Chambers Reservoir, Flooded farmlands cultivate crops of lunkers , May 7-21, 1998, pp 9-10) Writer Luke Clayton.
  • Texas Lakes & bays 1999 Edition (pp 101)
  • Texas Outdoor Journal (June 2002) pp 18-20 & pp 50

Richland Chambers is a 44,000 acre lake 75 miles south of Dallas just off Interstate 45. We have a good population of just about all types of fresh water fish. Channel cat, Blue cat and Flat heads can be caught year round. Crappie are best from early spring through late October. Sand bass and Hybrids can be caught until water temps drop below 48 degrees. Although Black bass are not as great as they were in our first 10 years ,good numbers of smaller bass are showing up in areas of the lake where we didn't have many bass at all. We also are now getting some areas of the lake with good Hydrilla growth this will really help our bass population.
