    # Lake Austin Fishing Report - November 30, 2025

    Hey, this is Artificial Lure bringing you today's Lake Austin fishing report for Sunday, November 30th.

    We're looking at a cool morning here on the lake with sunrise at 7:12 AM and sunset at 7:45 PM, giving us just under 12 and a half hours of daylight to work with. Major bite times are hitting hard from 3:03 to 5:03 AM and again from 3:33 to 5:33 PM, so if you can get out early or stick around through the evening, those are your windows.

    **Recent Activity & What's Biting**

    The postspawn bite has been solid across Central Texas lakes. We're seeing strong largemouth action, and folks have been connecting on some quality fish using both shallow and deep presentations. The water's been cool but productive, which means the bass are actively feeding.

    **Best Baits & Lures**

    For today, I'd recommend bringing a drop-shot rig with a 6-inch straight tail worm—that's been money in similar conditions. A Carolina rig with a creature bait will work the main lake structure and shell bars. If you want reaction baits, deep-diving crankbaits around hard spots and ledges should produce. Early morning, don't sleep on swim jigs working the grass edges and timber.

    **Hot Spots to Hit**

    Target the main river ledge and any isolated hard spots you can find—those are holding concentrations of quality fish right now. Work the grass lines early, especially if you've got shad activity. The points coming off the main lake body are prime real estate this time of year.

    Stay safe out there, keep your line tight, and thanks for tuning in! Don't forget to subscribe for your next Lake Austin update.

  • Lake Austin Fishing Report: Ideal Conditions and Bountiful Bites
    Nov 29 2025
    Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure with your Lake Austin fishing report for Saturday morning, November 29th.

    Water temps are sitting right around 67 degrees, and we've got some stained conditions out there, which is actually working in our favor. The lake is running about a quarter foot above pool level, so access to those shallow flats and creek channels should be pretty solid today.

    For sunrise, you're looking at just after 7 AM, giving you plenty of daylight to work with until sunset around 5:15 PM. That gives us a solid eight-hour window to get after it.

    The bite's been steady across the board. We're seeing good action on largemouth bass, with recent catches pushing into the 14-pound range—solid fish for Lake Austin. The hybrid stripers are active too, and don't sleep on the crappie bite right now. Channel catfish have been cooperative as well, especially on the deeper ledges.

    For lures, stick with what's working: throw some umbrella rigs with swimbaits if you've got forward-facing sonar, but honestly, don't overthink it. A good old-fashioned jig and craw pattern will put fish in the boat. Throw some topwater early and late in the day—the bite is aggressive right now. Swimbaits in the 3 to 4-inch range are your sweet spot.

    If you're running bait, live shad and shiners are money for the stripers and catfish.

    I'd head to the upper end near the Pedernales River area for some current-fed structure, or work those brush piles and shallow channels near the dam. Both spots are holding fish right now.

    Thanks so much for tuning in! Make sure you subscribe for daily reports.

  • Lake Austin Fishing Report - Swimbaits, Jerkbaits, and Alabama Rigs for Largemouths
    Nov 28 2025
    Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure with your Lake Austin fishing report for Friday morning, November 28th.

    Water temps are hovering around 67 degrees with good clarity and a decent stain throughout the lake – that's actually pretty favorable right now for getting bites. We're looking at a First Quarter Moon, so you should expect fair overall bite conditions today.

    The bass are really keying in on small baitfish out in the river channel this week, so if you're targeting largemouths, bring your small ball head swimbaits and jerkbaits. Alabama rigs are also producing solid catches. There's still plenty of matted grass around the lake, so don't shy away from punching through with a heavy jig – some nice fish are hiding in there.

    For lure selection, I'd recommend starting with those small swimbaits and jerkbaits, but also bring some Alabama rigs and heavy jigs for the grass. Match your lure sizes to the baitfish in the lake – the bass are actively feeding on shad right now. Texas-rigged soft plastics are also working, especially near deeper docks at night.

    Your hot spots today? Hit the river channel where the bass are schooling on small baitfish – that's your primary target zone. Also work the outside grass lines. There's good structure there holding some quality fish, especially working it with worms and creature baits. Major bite times today run from 6:26 AM to 8:26 AM and again from 6:44 PM to 8:44 PM.

    Get out there and tight lines, y'all. Thanks for tuning in and please subscribe for your daily reports!

    # Lake Austin Fishing Report – November 27, 2025

    Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Lake Austin fishing report for this Thursday morning. Water temperature is sitting at a comfortable 67 degrees with good clarity throughout the lake, and we're looking at a decent stain in the water right now, which is actually pretty favorable for fishing.

    The bite this week is running fair overall. Bass are really keying in on small baitfish out in the river channel, so if you're targeting largemouths, bring your small ball head swimbaits and jerkbaits. Alabama rigs are also producing solid catches. There's still quite a bit of matted grass around the lake, so don't shy away from punching through with a heavy jig – some nice fish are hiding in there.

    For lure selection, I'd recommend starting with those small swimbaits and jerkbaits I mentioned, but also bring some Alabama rigs and heavy jigs for the grass. Match your lure sizes to the baitfish in the lake – the bass are actively feeding on shad right now.

    Now, if you're looking for hot spots, check out the river channel where the bass are schooling on small baitfish. That's your primary target zone. Also work the outside grass lines – there's good structure there holding some quality fish, especially if you're working it with worms and creature baits. Some anglers have reported success near deeper docks at night with Texas-rigged soft plastics.

    The water level is running just slightly below pool at 0.57 feet down, so normal navigation shouldn't be too difficult. Get out there early to make the most of the morning bite, and remember to wear your life jacket out there.

    Thanks for tuning in to the Lake Austin fishing report. Make sure you subscribe for daily updates, and remember – tight lines out there, friends.

  • Trout Stocking, Bass Bites, and Holiday Crowds: Your Lake Austin Fishing Report
    Nov 26 2025
    Lake Austin locals, this is Artificial Lure, your angling expert, bringing you today’s fishing report right out of Travis County. With Wednesday, November 26th kicking off the holiday trout season, conditions and opportunities are lining up for some excellent bite potential.

    **Weather and Sun Times:** Wake to cool mid-50s this morning with patchy fog over the lake, gradually warming to the low 70s under partly cloudy skies. Winds light out of the southeast at 4-8 mph – perfect for boat and bank anglers. Expect sunrise around 7:01 a.m. and sunset at 5:27 p.m. Watch for the Waxing Gibbous moon tonight, boosting fish activity near dawn and dusk.

    **Tidal and Solunar Report:** While Lake Austin isn’t tidal, fishingreminder.com confirms major bite windows at 6:48–8:48 a.m. and 7:02–9:02 p.m. Plan to hit your hot spots early or just before dark for peak bites.

    **Fish Activity and Catches:** Today is big news for Austin’s trout anglers as Texas Parks and Wildlife is stocking thousands of rainbow trout across city lakes—including those in the Austin Neighborhood Fishin’ Program. The official word from TPWD is the lakes right in town are getting fresh stock starting today, and that means easy access for everyone, with or without a fancy rig. Locals have already been reporting solid catches of largemouth bass, white bass, and channel catfish in the main lake, with black crappie and sunfish making good showings especially near brush piles and docks.

    **Best Lures and Bait:** For trout, TPWD and local advice favor classic baits: cheese, kernel corn, nightcrawlers, and mealworms. If you’re throwing lures, small inline spinnerbaits and spoons work wonders on the fresh stock. Bass are hitting jerkbaits, green pumpkin jigs, and slow-rolled swimbaits; early risers saw good luck with chartreuse spinnerbaits in the shaded coves. Catfish continue to prefer cut shad and chicken liver, and crappie are being caught on small shad-imitating jigs.

    **Hot Spots:**
    - **Red Bud Isle:** Early morning has seen consistent trout and bass catches near deeper water off the northwest bank and under overhanging brush.
    - **Walsh Landing:** This stretch is prime for bank anglers after trout and panfish, especially after stocking events.
    - For bass, try pitching jigs into submerged timber near the 360 Bridge or working swimbaits along the rocky drop-offs upriver.
    - Crappie action is steady around the boat docks between Emma Long Park and City Park.

    **Regulations and Tips:** Adults need a freshwater license, but kids under 17 and anyone fishing from a state park dock or bank are license-free. The daily bag limit for rainbow trout is five, no minimum length. TPWD recommends checking the trout stocking calendar before heading out.

    That’s your update from Lake Austin—trout are here, bass are biting, and with holiday crowds, it pays to get there early and fish those bite windows. Thanks for tuning in to the report. Be sure to subscribe for weekly updates and get out before weekend crowds hit. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

  • Lake Austin Fishing Report for Nov 25: Clear Water, Trophy Bass & Shad Spawn Action
    Nov 25 2025
    Hey there, I'm Artificial Lure, and welcome to today's Lake Austin fishing report for Tuesday, November 25th.

    We're looking at excellent conditions on the water right now. Sunrise came in at 7:29 AM, and we've got until 7:45 PM to make the most of it, giving us just over 12 hours of solid daylight. The moon's waning crescent at just 4%, and according to solunar data, we're hitting major feeding times from 8:33 AM to 10:33 AM and again from 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Minor feeding windows run 3:55 AM to 4:55 AM and 2:12 PM to 3:12 PM.

    Lake Austin's been incredibly generous lately. The water's running clear and deep, much like a desert Southwest reservoir, which means we're dealing with excellent visibility. Word around the dock is that largemouth bass are the primary target, and they're feeding aggressively on shad right now. We're also seeing some Guadalupe bass activity, though they typically run smaller. Legal keepers are 14 inches minimum, averaging 1 to 3 pounds, but there's a serious population of trophy fish pushing 5+ pounds in these waters.

    For your tackle, bring topwater baits for the shad spawn—especially in the mornings. Finesse fishing's also producing well. A solid budget-friendly setup would be a Daiwa Aird X rod paired with a Daiwa Revros reel, or if you want to step up slightly, the Shimano SLX A is an absolute workhorse that punches above its weight class.

    Head toward the rocky bluff walls and dock areas along the impoundment—those are holding plenty of active fish. The Colorado River channel structure west of Austin is particularly productive right now.

    Thanks for tuning in to today's report. Make sure you subscribe for daily updates on Lake Austin and beyond.

  • Lake Austin Fishing Report: Ideal Late Fall Conditions for Bass, Catfish, and Panfish
    Nov 24 2025
    Good morning Austin anglers, this is Artificial Lure bringing you your local Lake Austin fishing report for Monday, November 24, 2025.

    We kicked off this morning with a **sunrise at 7:01 AM** and we’re looking at a sunset around **5:21 PM**. The weather’s classic late fall—cool and mild—setting up a near-perfect day to hit the water. The water temperature is sitting right at **72 degrees** with clarity reported as good, based on the latest update from Lone Star Outdoor News.

    Today’s solunar activity favors those early and late sessions. **The best major bite window just finished, running from 6:26 AM to 8:26 AM**. If you’re sneaking in an afternoon cast, keep an eye out for another major uptick between **6:44 PM and 8:44 PM**, with a minor bite around 1:37 PM to 3:37 PM. We’re sitting on a first quarter moon, so fish activity should be solid, especially around those major times (FishingReminder).

    **Lake Austin’s bass bite remains strong.** Largemouth are hitting well on **moving baits and soft plastics**. If you’re targeting numbers and action, try a white or chartreuse spinnerbait, or a square-billed crankbait worked along submerged structure and docks. For the finesse crowd, Texas-rigged soft plastics and wacky worm setups have been money, especially around creek inlets and drop-offs. On the hard bait side, a suspending jerkbait or a small swimbait can coax those pressured fish out, particularly during transition times when light is low (Lone Star Outdoor News).

    Anglers have been reporting a solid mix—**plenty of 2-to-4 pound bass**, and the occasional kicker 6-pounder. If you’re after numbers, focus shallower around grass edges, especially in the warming afternoon sun. For size, points and deeper structure by the dam and along the edges of the main river channel have been productive.

    While bass is the main game, don’t overlook the catfish and panfish. Catfish are fair to good on cut bait fished deeper along ledges and creek mouths; bluegill and sunfish are taking worms near docks and laydowns.

    Today’s best bait and lure options:

    - Chartreuse or white **spinnerbaits**
    - Black-and-blue or green pumpkin **Texas-rigged worms**
    - Small **swimbaits** in shad patterns
    - Suspending **jerkbaits**
    - Cut shad or chicken liver for **catfish**

    If live bait’s your thing, **shiners or nightcrawlers** will catch just about anything swimming today.

    Hot spots for today:
    - **Emma Long Metro Park**: Fish the deeper park docks and drop-offs for both quantity and size.
    - **Tom Miller Dam area**: Work swimbaits or jerkbaits along the calmer, deeper stretches for your shot at a trophy.
    - **Lower end creek arms near West Bull Creek**: Moving baits early in the day have triggered aggressive strikes.

    Don’t forget: Lake Austin can get trafficky, so keep your eyes up, stay courteous, and mind the regulations around no-wake zones.

    That’s your Lake Austin report for November 24, 2025. Thanks for tuning in with Artificial Lure—make sure you subscribe for more local fishing insights.

  • Lake Austin Fishing Report: Fall Bass, Crappie, and Trout Stocking
    Nov 21 2025
    Lake Austin is waking up a bit this November morning, right on the tail end of a humid front sweeping through Central Texas. Local forecasters this Friday call for sunrise at 6:59 AM and sunset around 5:32 PM. We're in the First Quarter moon, with the major fish activity windows hitting from about 6:25 to 8:25 AM and again from 6:45 to 8:45 PM, according to FishingReminder. That gives you solid windows for the early riser bite and an hour or so before dusk for a good shot at a big one.

    The weather's been swinging mild to cool—mid-50s at dawn and rising toward the 70s by mid-afternoon with light southeast winds. These conditions are classic for fall bass movement, with fish pulling up onto rocky points and shallow flats to chase late shad schools. Water clarity’s pretty typical this time of year, stained a little after the midweek rain but clearing steadily.

    Recent reports from folks on the water and area guides have largemouth bass as the main draw right now. Most catches have been in the 1-3 pound range, with a few solid 4s and 5s showing up for those working structure near deeper water. Catfish—mostly channels and some blues—are biting steady at night and early morning, especially on cut bait off the deeper channel bends. Sunfish remain active in the warmer coves for anyone bringing kids or looking for a fish fry.

    Bass anglers are mostly running shad-imitating lures. Top choices this week are chrome and shad-colored jerkbaits like the Berkley Stunna 112+1, plus flukes in pearl or white, rigged weightless or on a light jighead. Early and late, walking topwaters such as Zara Spooks or Heddon One Knocker in bone or silver will draw explosive hits off wind-blown banks, especially when cloud cover hangs in. If the bite slows midday, it’s time to drag a green pumpkin Texas rig or a drop shot with a 4” finesse worm along the deeper grass edges, particularly near ledge drop-offs.

    Crappie have started moving a bit deeper with water cooling, but some slabs are still coming from submerged brush and docks in 8–15 feet of water on small jigs or live minnows.

    For bait, it’s tough to beat fresh-cut shad for catfish, red wigglers or crickets for sunfish, and small minnows for crappie. Bass will take a lively shiner, but artificials are the name of the game for numbers.

    Prime hot spots to try today:

    - The mouth of **Bee Creek**, especially around the submerged timber, is holding steady with bait and bass both early and late in the day.

    - The rocky banks and retaining walls near **Emma Long Park** always produce for numbers, particularly for those fan-casting jerkbaits as the sun’s coming up.

    - For crappie and bonus bass, the deeper docks upstream from **the 360 bridge** are holding fish—work the shade lines carefully.

    There's good news from Texas Parks and Wildlife too: Rainbow trout stockings kick off next week on Nov. 26 in Austin-area Neighborhood Fishin’ lakes, making it a great bonus option for multi-species anglers or anyone fishing with kids.

    This has been your daily Lake Austin report from your buddy Artificial Lure. Thanks for tuning in—tight lines out there, and don’t forget to subscribe for more local tips and on-the-water updates.
