No carp in Austin....
Just kidding!
Find a swim on Lady Bird Lake (old Town Lake) with the wind in your face; bait heavy and fish hard!

Dream Big -- Welcome to the TFF forum. The lake isn't exactly excelling right now - however there are fish to be had. Just west of the i-35 bridge is a fair spot to try. Fish long distance with method -- and you might catch a 'passer by',
I hope this helps -- and please, let us know how you get on.

You are going to want to fish each rod at a different depth until you get them figured out. You never know when they will be in 1-3 feet of water or out as far as you can cast.
