How do you fish Grapevine after the flood?

going there on Saturday and fishing a club tournament. Any advice or suggestions after this much water and still rising.

Go shallow in the brush is what I'd try first.

thickest shallow stuff you can find. i like blades and brush hogs.

My dad was driving by Meadowmere boat ramp yesterday and saw a man pull some nice fish out of the incoming current in the creek channel. He couldn't stick around long enough to get a great look at what he was doing but if you are familiar with river bass fishing now might be a good time to apply those skills. Also, like WarEagle1982 said, I think this is also a good time to pull out the jib and buzz bait. There is a lot of new real-estate to fish.

I will be out on the lake this weekend as well fishing for fun. Look for the gold Nitro640LX.

Run a spinner or drag a weightless or light trig worm/senko/lizard through all that flooded brush. Watch for the swirls and moving sticks early in the mornin then toss to them

how can you shop where the pros shop when the website doesnt even work?

+1 on the blades and brush hogs....super shallow

Brush?? I thought we were talking about Grapevine?

Do you not realize the lake has came up 5 feet in the last two days.....

There's tons of flooded brush right now, and it'll be holding plenty of fish.

Thanks - I appreciate the input. I'm anxious to see what the lake looks like with this much water coming in.

just watch out for floating debris. its still rising.

Not to mention, it looks like there is still the chance of isolated pockets of rain through the week and into next week. Will be interesting to see how much it rises.

Last time it was 5' over conservation pool, the fishing was great!

There is no fish in Grapevine, especially Bass. and they do not bite, especially on the Grass lines of the newly flooded areas.
Frogs are not a native species of Grapevine either, so dont get caught throwing them into the new grass line where there are no fish,especially Bass.
Sorry i could not help you out.

Ok - I wont fish floating amphibians around or near shallow newly submerged fauna for fictitious piscatorial species.

Is the free boat ramp near little petes closed?

i think the one in the park in twin coves is still closed.

find the old bankline...we only caught little dinks up shallow ...caught 2 overs fishing the old bankline and several decent slots..only ramps open are katies woods high water ramp meadowmere and dove loop

Give it time before the fish move into those shallows!! it just came up yesterday! Fish have to get a little adjusted! And ya Mr JDB. . . Dont worry about those frogs around that flooded brush!! Aint no fish will bite those!! Not Ever! hahaha

Go to Lewisville, oops sorry

yea but the last time it was 5 feet over it was also like 20' over for the month before it and the lake was closed...no pressure for a month and the fishing will be good on most lakes...not going to be closed for a month this time...well see here in a few days though when stuff settles down a little ...good to know the lake will be full and healthy regardless
