Granger Lake for the first time - 05/22/18 03:52 AM
I went out to granger this morning, got stuck on the interstate near downtown Austin. Instead of arriving at 615 , I got to the ramp after 8. Not how I wanted to start my day. The water was at 78 degrees, stained and calm. I drove around marking potential piles till about 9. On the first pile fished, I managed to pull up a dozen fish on hand tied purple chenille body with flash and chartreuse tail jig. I did soak a minnow- nothing touched it!everything was caught on jigs! I managed only one keeper out of this hole. Lots of dinks on this lake! As the day got warmer the fishing got better. I put about 60 fish in the boat, releasing all but 1 dozen of the bigger fish- which I managed to catch later when it was bright and warm. I was getting the jig deep into the piles for the bigger fish- everything was caught in 10-13 for. It was a good way to spend a monday!
Lots of dinks!!!
ALL MY BETTER FISH were caught when the sun was high
Time to get the grease hot!!
