Hey guys my best buddy is having a bachelors party June 8 down at DeCordova Bend. He wants to fish at night for hybrids / sand bass. We fish lighted docks at cedar creek and kill em doing this. Any advice for finding good stretches of lighted docks at Granbury that might hold some fish at night? Looks like we will be in the south part of the lake. Thanks.

There are some lights there that hold fish but I never did near as well as I would at PK or Eagle Mountain. Others might chime in that have had great luck there. Good luck!

There has been nothing in my light or neighbors this year so far. Pretty sure it is because of the muddy water and I suspect that we have lost a bunch of fish through the dam over the last year. Had a bunch last year up until the flood happened.

Things have been really slow lately, but hopefully everything should clear up by then. I live in DCBE, and have been having a little luck from the AMUD intake to the deCordova power plant right on the edge of the channel (both sides). I mainly fish in the mornings just after dawn though. I use shad I net at the marina.

Thanks all. We will have a good time no matter what, but I hope I can find a few good lights holding fish. I know how to catch em once I find the right kind, but having never been there before I'd love to know there are some good stretches of lights before we head out.

Granbury will be nothing like Cedar Creek night fishing. Be sure follow the markers heading up river (to the right) out of DeCordova. A lot of trees that direction. There has been a lot of debris in the water. Be cautious and good luck!

My PK trip cancelled and was able to scout Granbury this morning June 2nd after the rain. There is some clear water close to dam. I caught 6 stripers this am... Catch and release. Here are pics of two. They were releasing a bunch of water. Hopefully there will remain some clear water. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/06/full-1239-13874-wp_20190602_09_18_02_rich1.jpg)

Are you saying that the same types of fishing isn't available on the lighted docks?

Be very careful out there. I was on the lake Saturday and there is some huge debris floating through there right now. Honestly I'd be afraid to run there at night with it like that.

Well you guys are making me nervous, I'm gettting down there in the afternoon to look around and fish a little. If it looks bad we will just stay on the trolling motor close to home cove. Maybe flip docks for a few bass.

We aren't down until Saturday. Is it still chocolate milk? Are they still letting water out?

Hood county just declared a disaster declaration for expected flooding due to PK opening a third floodgate. North end of Lake Granbury in the Horseshoe Bend area expected to flood out.
