I fish two little ponds with my son in the Round Rock/Pflugerville area.

1. Old Settlers Park in Round Rock (Bright Lake).
3/5 Have caught LMB from 10-14 inches. Have talked to some guys catching 20+ inchers there but haven't seen them. Also have some perch/sunfish (total dinks) if you've got a little one that wants to fish. If you temper your expectations and can be happy with catching a couple of fish, you won't be disappointed.

2. Mills Pond in Wells Branch.
2.5/5 We catch channel cats there. My son and I have only gone a few times and have been catching some of the recent cats they stocked (anywhere from 10-14 inches). I've seen a couple LMB caught there but haven't caught any myself. Have also seen pics of MONSTER cats taken there...fish as big as my 6 year old. Also have the obligatory little perch as well. I would rate it higher if I had any bass luck here at all, but so far, just cats...about 7 or 8 a day over four hours isn't too bad.

Both are nice places to go if you've got a young one that's learning to fish (or if you're old like me and learning to fish alongside your young one).

There is yellow and blue cats in there as well. I never catch anything out there so it would be a 0 of 5 for me. Maybe you can show me some secret spots lol.

fishing available most of the time.
both ponds stocked every so often, don't know what with though.
i know there was a good supply of cats and sunfish available 1 1/2 to 2 years ago. plenty of parking available with picnic tables under shelter at the front pond. the back pond has limited parking on site, but plenty in area. the park is right off us 59 between the hospital and us 190. there is a couple of soccer field and some baseball fields in the park as well as the flea market on 3rd monday(i think. may be 2nd).

Converse Lake. This lake is also located in the City of Converse TX. (Northeast of San Antonio). It is a community lake that does not have any docks. Fishing is done mainly from the bank and small "John" Boats are permitted.

This lake has some very large Blue Gills and Redears. There are also some nice Channels and some very nice Bass. I have heard of some six plus being pulled from this lake. I personally have seen a couple of five ponders caught.

I would give this lake a 4 ratting just on the quality of the fish there. The water is mainly clear through out the year. During the summer there is a lot of moss that you have to deal with. Other than that for the most part it is a fairly easy lake to fish.

It would surprise me if there were Flatheads or Blues in that lake. I know that Parks@Wildlife did not stock the lake with those types of fish. Not to say that one or the other could have been released in the lake that had been caught some where else by an angler. Also the lake is not deep enough to support a blue. It could support a Flathead.I have never seen or heard of any of those types of fish being caught in that lake as well. Anyway there are a lot of good spots to fish on that lake. They are not hard to find. Even the dock(at night) is fair for some Channel Cats.
It is also a very easy lake to learn and fish. Good luck.

Enlightening us would be like giving the public a map to your honey hole.I doubt I would tell unless I enjoyed lots of company.

Burger lake in Flowermound is not open to the public. It is a private lake in which we lease the rights to. It is listed as Flowermound Furst Ranch on our web-site. It is a 37 acre private lake.
