I caught and released a nice 14 lb flathead catfish the last time I fished Eagle Mountain. So I know they’re out there. I was trying to catch bass using a black and blue jig but was quite happy with the fight. 🙂. Good luck, I hope you catch a few nice ones.

Better than mine!

That’s cute. 🙂

I haven’t been out lately. You might also try a search on the TexasFishingForum. Here’s the March 15th TPWD update

Grapevine
FAIR. Water clear; 55 degrees; 0.81 feet above pool. Check the wind and weather forecast before heading. Fishing has been best noon to the evening. Gulls are leading the way to schooling white bass. White bass are good with slabs and jigging spoons off the bottom in 24-27 feet of water. Crappie should be on flooded brush. Catfish should be in deep channels suspended in 30 feet using punch bait. Bass should be moving shallow to spawning areas. Target rocky points casting craw patterned soft plastics. Report by Omar Cotter, Luck O’the Irish Fishing Guide Service

Ok, I’ll play.
Arizona has lots of strippers. There are fat strippers, skinny strippers, short strippers, strippers that sing….🙂 You know, like Bubba Gump Shrimp; only strippers.

I googled it. However I didn’t read it or try to understand what it is proposing. Hope this helps.

Great story Mr. Samples. 🙂. Thanks for sharing.

You might try Eagle Mountain Lake if you haven’t already. It’s just north of Fort Worth. At first I thought I had hooked what was going to be my PB largemouth bass, but it turned out to be a 14# flathead; bouncing a black and blue jig on the bottom. If I caught a flathead without trying maybe….
I agree with El Rod about using live bait. Bluegill is probably the best bait for flathead around here. Lake Lewisville has some nice blue catfish. Grapevine Lake is pretty good for catfish too. If all else fails, try a fishing guide. They will usually help you find the fish. Good luck!🙂

This article might help too.

Generally I would have referred you to the Texas Parks and Wildlife website for their weekly fishing report. But for some unknown reason there isn’t one for Lake Georgetown???
You might try the TexasFishingForum website… once you join(it’s free) you can use the search tool and look up “Georgetown” and see if you have any luck there. 🙂

Thanks Hack. Posts like this one are why I really appreciate this forum and the people who make it what it is. 🙂

You might try the TexasFishingForum. Once a member,(it’s free) you can perform a search of the discussions; for example: by lake name; and get some pretty current information. I check Lake Grapevine occasionally. Hope that helps.

Texas Parks and Wildlife posts a weekly update on for each lake on their website. 🙂. You can also signup for the weekly reports.

I had no idea panfish grew that large! 🙂

Now that’s funny🙂

Wonder who’s older... the fish or the fisherman?
