Fishing Report from TPWD (Aug. 27)

FAIR. Water stained; 86-89 degrees; 0.50 feet below pool. Water clarity is 2-8 feet of visibility. Stripers are slow. Live bait is your best bet. Nothing is being caught trolling at the moment. Look for them in 20-40 feet of water. They are moving fast, so you will have to slowly move around and just pick them off one at a time till you find a good school. Then try to stay on top of the school, which can be extremely tough as they are moving fast. Sand bass are fair. Look for them in 10-20 feet of water on main lake points and sand flats. Chrome and white seem to be outproducing all other colors. Catfish are good. 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. Report by TJ Ranft, Ranft Guide Service.
