Lake Granbury Fishing Guide
Angling Opportunities
Lake Granbury supports populations of Largemouth Bass, Catfish, Crappie, White & Striped Bass.
Cover & Structure
The main lake has a small amount of timber, cattails and bulrushes, but by far the predominant type of structure is boat houses and piers. TPWD has worked with local partners to install fish habitat structure in this reservoir. Limited amounts of bulrush, cattails, and water stargrass.
Tips & Tactics
Striped bass fishing can be very good on this long, sinuous reservoir. Downrigging jigs and crankbaits as well as drifting live shad can be very effective. The mid-lower lake seems to be best. Largemouth bass fishing can be excellent around any of the 1000-plus boat docks and piers. Crankbaits, jigs, and worms are top bets.
Fishing Regulations
All species at Lake Granbury are managed under standard Texas statewide regulations.
