Fishing Report from TPWD (Oct. 30)

GOOD. Water stained; 68 degrees; 2.45 feet below pool. Striper fishing is excellent on live bait and topwaters. Thousands of gulls have arrived and will be working deep water on the right day. Check ledges in 30-40 feet of water with bait, and target shallow points early with TW’s. Bass fishing is picking up with cooler temperatures and potential inflow if we get rain. Look for fish on humps and structure in 10-15 feet of water using plastics and reaction baits. Fish around dock floats and lifts with a small V-tail swimbait. Catfishing is good on cut shad and prepared baits. Larger fish are appearing on deep flats in 40-50 feet of water and off river ledges in deep water. Smaller fish are still plentiful on cut shad in 30-40 feet of water. Crappie action will increase with cooler temperatures as fish move up and hold tight to brush and around creeks. Use electronics to locate active fish in 12-18 feet of water near brush. Report by Jacob Orr, Lake Guaranteed Guide Service. Cooler weather will improve the bite. Striped bass are best on topwaters early in the morning, then switch to slabs on shallow flats in 12-25 feet of water with topwaters and slabs. Follow the birds when there is bird activity to land a few sand bass and striped bass. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
