them. And then the crappie fishing has really picked up here the last two weeks.� The most recent fishing report for Lake Brownwood from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is as follows: Water stained; 75–79 degrees; 0.01’ low. Black bass are good on crankbaits, flukes, spinnerbaits, and jigs around docks in 8–10 feet. Hybrid striper are slow. White bass are good on silver jigs off lighted docks at night in 5–15 feet. Crappie are good on minnows and white tube jigs over baited brush piles. Channel and blue catfish are slow. Yellow catfish are slow. Last year, Lake Brownwood was stocked with 465,971 fish — 324,616 blue catfish and 141,355 Florida largemouth bass two-inch fingerlings. But Holland says the results from that won’t be felt for a few years. “The stocking they did last year, we won’t be seeing results from that for probably another four or five years. This is what was already here, so we have even better things to look forward
