GRANBURY
GOOD. Water stained; 83 degrees; 0.15 feet below pool. Water temperatures are in the middle 80s and clearing. Sand bass continue to be abundant on many areas of the lake from in-town by the Shores to the dam. Look for surface schooling action early and late. Striped bass are hit and miss, but when you get on them look out. Some good striped bass to 10 pounds are possible on the lower ends on baitandtrolledjigs/crankbaits. Largemouth bass are good in numbers and many are schooling with the sand bass on feeding flats in town to Blue Water shores. Some of the bigger largemouth are near creek entrances and deeper docks. Best baits for largemouth are spinner baits and crankbaits early with soft plastics working later in the morning. Crappie reports are mixed, but small minnows and jigs worked near underwater structures like flooded timber from Water’s Edge to Bentwater are reported as good. Best catfish action is reported in the evening using cut shad or prepared baits. Some big blue catfish and yellow catfish are possible to 25 pounds.
POSSUM KINGDOM FAIR. Water slightly stained; 87 degrees; 0.23 feet above pool. Stripers are fair in 20-40 feet of water. The best bite has been live bait but it can be difficult to find. Fish are moving fast, so you will have to slowly move around and pick them off one at a time. Sand bass are fair to good and moving quickly in 5-20 feet of water on main lake points. Chrome and white seem to be out producing all other colors. Catfish are fair to good on cut shad in 10-20 feet of water fished on the bottom. Baited holes are your best bet to catch numbers but will not produce big fish. Bait with cattle cubes and wait 2-3 hours before fishing. Use punch bait for best results on baited holes. Catfish should be going into spawn soon so it should start to slow down until they are done spawning. Water clarity is 2-6 feet of visibility but slightly stained on the south end.
