New to area. About to get boat ready for lake. Is it a good lake for whites and strippers or hybrids?

Dbones, yes it is a good lake for striper's and white's, read the fishing reports by Michael Acosta on Texas Parks and Wildlife website. They are new each week on Wednesday late afternoon they are updated. I have personally hired him for a guided trip on Granbury with great success last May. The whites this time of year are up the river near the tin top area, and staging near the river mouth close to Hunter Park. For the striped bass look closer to the dam the first major turn the river makes north from the dam is called striper alley. Fish right along the channel ledges and adjacent flats for the stripers in this area, I hear using a umbrella rig is a good trolling method. Seems to me that the stripers always prefer the live shad though. Good luck and tight lines!!

Thanks for the reply. I will get boat out of storage, clean it up and see if I can learn a few things about the lake.

There are always some striper in the end of the lake by the dam. They move up and down the lake and some are being caught around the 377 bridge now.

I believe I found some today around high line wires in what I think they call stripper alley. Unless my old graph was lying to me. Thanks for reply.

D Bones that is an area that Michael Acosta took us to, I found them there before but unwilling to bite the last time I was in that spot. Good on you though!

Try a thumper, splasher and donโt be afraid to try different baits. If all else fails, usually live shad will catch anything.
