Fishing Report from Captain Larry

2) Austin

"This trip today turned out great. Water temp is 55-57 on the lower end of Lake Travis. We caught largemouth and Guadalupe bass on Shakey heads and swimbaits in 20-36ft on offshore structure. No spawning activity yet and limited shallow action as the fish are still preparing to move shallow over the next few weeks. Here are my happy guests doubled up with some nice Lake Travis bass!" - Fishing Report from Jake, Guide in Austin, TX
