Fishing Report

Dec 20, 2023
GREAT. Water stained; 60 degrees; 0.71 feet below pool. Catfish are great. Eater sized catfish are pretty easy right now from shallow to deep using Catfish Bubblegum, liver, shad, and punch bait. Drifting for trophy class blue catfish has been good on bream and shad. Hybrids have been good on shad flats and live shad. Pretty much find the bait and find the fish. Report by Brad Doyle, Bradley’s Guide Service. Bass have been fair in 6-12 feet of water around grass beds and points. Fish are on the move and crankbaits can be productive in all depths especially around points with drop offs and structures. Rock piles and rip rap will hold active fish during the day along with bulkheads and docks. Deeper structure up to 18 feet will also produce bass on worms, crankbaits, and Carolina rigs. Report by Bryan Brawner, Lake Conroe Charters. Crappie bite has improved on structure in 12-22 feet of water using hair jigs from Lone Star Crappie Jigs and Stunna jigs, and low profile plastics. Minnows have not performed as well as jigs. As the day warms up crappie will be on the move. Always wear your life jacket. Merry Christmas! Report by Mike Cason, Fishical Therapy Lake Conroe Guide.
