Grand Fishing Report

Jeff Williams’ weekly report on what’s biting on Grand Lake: Crappie, White Bass, Catfish, Bass, Paddlefish, and the hunting woods around the lake.

Latest report

November 11, 2026

Water is cooling off, but it is clear, with early fall-like fishing conditions. There are a lot of birds out on the water now, sitting in areas with baitfish and a lot of activity. The same kind of weather patterns have been hanging around.
