Lake Brownwood levels continue to drop despite the recent rainfall. According to the Brown County Water Improvement Website, the lake is now at 6.7 feet below the spillway level which is continuing its steady decline this month.
There is a good chance of rain for the remainder of the week although much of the chance is in the form of isolated thundershowers. If these build just right, they might benefit the lake levels.
The Texas Parks & Wildlife Department released its fishing report for this week showing what is biting and some of the baits that are working. The report reads:
Black bass are fair on Bass Hogg spinnerbaits and Pig Sticker Shaky Heads with Grande Bass 4″ redbug or green pumpkin Trickster Worms near the docks and over brush piles in 12 – 15 feet, and good on Frog and Pop-R topwaters. Hybrid striper are slow. White bass are good on Li’l Fishies off lighted docks at night. Crappie are good on Li’l Fishies and minnows over brush piles in 10 – 18 feet, and off lighted docks at night.
