Austin area guys (need your help)

Austin area guys (need your help) - 03/30/16 03:38 PM

I live here in north DFW but I work out of Austin. I play full time for a Texas country singer and sometimes I have a day off (like this Friday). I need help with a few areas to bank fish. I obviously won't have my full compliment of setups, gear, tackle, boat, etc... just a collapsible spinning set up and small tackle bag that I throw under the bus. I just need to know where are some good places to fish so I can get my fix. Little help is much appreciated.

Definitely Lady Bird Lake. It's on fire right now! If you can swing it and he's available, hire Charles Whited (Barefootfishingtours.com) as a guide for a day. He's had some monster bags out there lately and he can definitely put you on fish. You could catch the fish of a lifetime there right now.

Yep, Ladybird if you're stuck on the bank. Expect to have some company, though. Between the joggers, rowers, and recreational kayak/canoeists, that BOW gets hammered.

Thanks for the replies guys. Looks like I'll be beating the banks of Lady Bird tomorrow. Ha.

Walk down the San Marcos River bank, all to yourself!

Be sure to throw a watermelon red senko.
