GRANBURY
GOOD. Water stained; 83 degrees; 0.24 feet below pool. Water levels are at full pool, however navigation may be dangerous due to floating debris. Fishing for striped bass and sandbass are best on the lower ends using trolled baits. Largemouth bass are good in the back of the creeks where the water has settled out some.

POSSUM KINGDOM
FAIR. Water slightly stained; 84 degrees; 0.10 feet above pool. Stripers are slow to fair in 20-40 feet of water. The best bite has been live bait but it can be difficult to find. There has been good steady action with the occasional slowdown. Best bet is to just sit and wait for them to move through and catch a few then wait for the next school. Sand bass are fair in 5-20 feet of water on main lake points. Chrome and white seem to be out producing all other colors. Catfish are good on cut shad in 2-10 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 less than 1 foot on the north end, but the south end is better at 3-6 feet of visibility.
