Went to the Guad and had a hay-day on whites. What we weren't expecting was to catch striper. We traveled up the whole river most of the morning not catching much. We finaly found one spot that we fished all day and loaded up on striper. Water temp was 47 in the morning and raised to around 51-53 by days end. It was non stop most of the rest of the day. Best trip yet on the Guad.

Nice! That's a good sized crappie

Nice fish! Good job.

Sounds like a great trip! Good job and thanks for sharing!

I am wondering if the big striper come all the way up the river?

Great post !

Where is the farthest up lake boat ramp that is useable right now ?

Thanks !

Great report. This is the first report from the Guadalupie that had pictures of fish. Sounds like you had a fun day.

The only big striper I've heard that are in the Guad are at the spillway downriver. I heard they feed on the smaller trout and these tend to get monstrous! Seen pictures of them. But I wouldn't doubt they are upriver as well.

There are not any boat ramps open up river. You would have to put in at an open ramp on the lake

Let me try again. Which ramp, that is open, is the closest one to the river end of the lake ?

Thanks !

Here is a list of all the boat ramp closures. The link also has a link that shows a map of all the ramps on canyon. From there you can choose which one you would like to put in at. I would say that ramp #6 is your best bet because it is a county ramp and you do not have to pay. Ramp #1 is also open and is a county ramp. If anyone catches anything please post your pitcures. I would love to see how others are doing. Good luck everyone!!

Anyone had any luck?

The lake can surprise you sometimes.
Other times it slaps you down.

For those thinking about headed out this weekend, we have had 3" of rain so far and its still raining.
The river area will get messed up and have floating debris everywhere.
It's going to take a few days for it to clean up and become fishable.
The lower part of the lake may still be fishable. Maybe.

Tight lines,

Nice post, but for some reason the background in the pictures is blurry

+1 on that, just made me smile here
