Fish species in Proctor Lake

Official stocking history

Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.

Proctor offers hybrid stripers and crappie, with bass and catfish around timber and other cover. The open lower lake and brushier upper end call for different approaches.

Where and how to fish

For hybrids, troll striper jigs or drift shad in the lower reservoir, watching for feeding birds and surface activity. Bass anglers can work jigs and worms around upper-lake willows, buttonbush and standing timber. More brush becomes available at higher levels. TPWD's habitat map marks added brush piles and artificial reefs.

Access and time at the lake

Promontory Point, Sowell Creek, Copperas Creek and the dam park provide Corps boat launches. Several have lighted ramps. Choose the access nearest your planned fishing water and confirm current facilities with the Corps before arranging an early start or late return.
