SLOW. Water stained; 66 degrees; 0.56 feet below pool. Catfish continue to be great on points, ledges, humps and structure using catfish Bubblegum, liver, worms or punch bait. Report by Brad Doyle, Bradley’s Guide Service. Bass are on the slow side now with unsettled weather patterns. Some smaller black bass are being caught fishing close to marinas and boat docks, especially around points and other drops around 6-8 feet of water. Brush, or rock structures are holding fish. They can be caught using worms, spinner baits, swimbaits, and medium crankbaits. Instead of focusing solely on calm waters, consider targeting areas like bulkheads and rip rap with wind chop. Wind breaks up the surface, reduces light penetration, activates baitfish movement and thus triggers a feeding response in bass. Report by Bryan Brawner, Lake Conroe Charters. Hybrids are in 12-24 feet of water on flats trolling with a pet spoon and a diver, or jigging MTPockets slabs. Whites have been running with the hybrids in some schools as well as juvenile hybrid, please check the tooth patch for proper identification. Crappie are slow, having to hit many spots to get the hotties. Minnows are hit-or-miss, with some success using hair jigs from Lone Star Crappie Jigs and Stunna jigs, hair jigs are out producing plastic jigs. Crappie are in 11-22 feet of water on or close to the structure. Always wear your life jacket. Report by Mike Cason, Fishical Therapy Lake Conroe Guide.
