Lake Conroe Fishing Guide

Angling Opportunities

Largemouth bass are the most sought after species in Lake Conroe. Catch rates are very good and the opportunity to catch a trophy bass is very high at Lake Conroe. In 1998, the biggest largemouth bass ever collected by TPWD in an electrofishing survey was taken from beneath a boat dock and weighed in at 14.1 pounds. The standing lake record caught in 2009 by angler Ricky Bearden weighed 15.93 pounds.

Cover & Structure

Lake Conroe is dominated by open water in the lower two-thirds of the reservoir, with some standing timber still present along the river channel in the upper reaches. Most of the standing timber is slightly submerged when the lake is at conservation pool, making navigation hazardous in these areas. Bulkheads with boat docks dominate the shore in the lower reservoir; the upper reservoir (the portion lying within the Sam Houston National Forest) is primarily featureless shoreline.

Tips & Tactics

Largemouth bass fishermen can expect to take bass in shallow water, particularly around marinas and boat docks, in the early spring and mid- to late fall. In other seasons, bass are taken around deeper cover. fishermen are most successful with a variety of shad imitation lures or soft plastic baits. Hybrid striped bass are growing in popularity among Lake Conroe fishermen and can be caught most any time of year. Most are taken by fishermen trolling in open water areas or vertically jigging spoons or live shad.

Fishing Regulations

Lake Conroe has special regulations on largemouth bass. See bag and size limits. A Triploid Grass Carp Permit is in effect on Lake Conroe. If a grass carp is caught, it must be immediately returned to the water unharmed. Check current TPWD regulations before your trip.
