TIPS & TACTICS

The hot-water discharge is an excellent area to fish during the winter, especially for hybrid striped bass and white bass. Hybrid stripers are also consistently caught in the equalization channel between Graham and Eddleman and around the dam on the Graham side. For bass, with the variety of cover, a number of techniques can be productive, including flipping, dock fishing, topwater, and spinnerbaits.


FISHING COVER / STRUCTURE

Lake Graham is a power plant reservoir, but the plant operates only when demand is high so it does not provide consistent winter fishing. The hot-water discharge is located on the Eddleman portion of the reservoir. The lake offers a variety of cover including smartweed, bulrush, pondweed and lily pads. Anglers can also find buttonbush, boat docks, rip-rap, standing timber, brush, and black willow trees. Shoreline is rocky.


AQUATIC VEGETATION

Bulrushes, lily pads, smartweed, pondweed.


FISHING REGULATIONS

All species are currently managed under statewide regulations: Texas Parks and Wildlife Freshwater Bag and Length Limits
