Lake Granbury

Lake Granbury is an 8,700-acre impoundment at De Cordova Bend on Brazos River. Parks, camps and service facilities for outdoor recreation dot the 103-mile shoreline. The picturesque lake holds several fish records. Lake Granbury edges the city for which it is named, following the looping channel of the Brazos. Jacob de Cordova, for whom the dam is named, was a man of unusual abilities. He accumulated land scrip for more than a million Texas acres, and billing himself as "Publicity Agent for an Empire," lectured throughout the East in 1859 to stimulate interest in Texas. The lake also accessible from Acton. - Texas Dept of Transportation Guide Book

Fishing Information
Texas Parks & Wildlife Fishing Report http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/fishboat/fish/action/reptform2.php?lake=GRANBURY&archive=latest&yearcat=current&Submit=Go Predominant Fish Species: Largemouth bass, striped bass, white bass, channel catfish, flathead catfish, white crappie, sunfish. All fishes are managed under statewide regulations with the exception of largemouth bass, which has a 16" minimum length limit and a 5 fish daily bag limit. FISHING COVER/STRUCTURE The main lake has a small amount of timber, cattails and bulrushes, but by far the number one structure is boat houses and piers. The upper lake has more timber and brushpiles. FISHING TIPS AND TACTICS Striped bass fishing can be very good on this long, sinuous reservoir. Downrigging jigs and crankbaits as well as drifting live shad can be very effective. The mid-lower lake seems to be best. Largemouth bass fishing can be excellent around any of the 1000-plus boat docks and piers. Crankbaits, jigs, and worms are top bets. Catfishing is best in the upper reservoir. The stained water and abundant timber along the Brazos River channel makes for excellent trotlining. Crappie can be caught using live minnows fished around docks, submerged brush, and bridge pilings. White bass fishing is best during the spring in the river above the lake. Small jigs and spinners work best. Sunfish can be caught using live worms or crickets fished around docks, especially in early summer.
