Lake Austin Fishing Report: Cool Temps, Hungry Bass, and Top Spots to Target
If you're planning to hit Lake Austin today, here’s what you need to know:
First off, the weather is cool, with water temperatures hovering in the lower 60s, which is typical for this time of year. The lake is slightly stained and sitting 0.62 feet below pool level.
Sunrise today is at 7:26 AM, and sunset will be at 5:38 PM, giving you about 10 hours of daylight to get out there and catch some fish.
Bass fishing has been good, with reports of catches up to 5 pounds for Largemouth Bass and up to 2 pounds for Guadalupe Bass. The most effective pattern for catching numbers is using small worms around grass beds and docks. You'll also find fish hanging out around the mouths of creeks, feeding on Shad. A shallow Jerkbait and weightless fluke are good choices for these areas.
For the best results, slowly fish senko style worms, especially in the front and bottom thirds of the lake where the grass is thick. The bigger bass are coming in from 6-12 feet deep, but there are plenty of bass up against the shores as well. The best bites are usually before noon.
Some hot spots to consider include the grass beds and docks, as well as the mouths of creeks where the fish are feeding on Shad. The front and bottom thirds of the lake are particularly good due to the abundant grass.
Overall, Lake Austin is offering some great fishing opportunities right now, so grab your gear and get out there
