Possum Kingdom Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (Aug. 13)

FAIR. Water stained; 86-88 degrees; 0.21 feet below pool. Water clarity is 2-6 feet of visibility. Stripers are slow with live bait being the best option. Nothing is being caught trolling. Look for them in 20-40 feet of water. They are moving fast, so slowly move around and pick them off one at a time until you find a good school. Staying on top of the school can be extremely tough as they move fast. Sand bass are fair to good in 5-10 feet of water on main lake points and sand flats. Chrome and white colors are outproducing all others. Catfish are fair on cut shad in 10-20 feet fished on the bottom. Baited holes are best to catch numbers but won't produce big fish. Bait with cattle cubes and wait 2-3 hours before fishing. Use punch bait for best results on baited holes. Catfish spawning activity will make them slow for about the next month.
