Liberty Hill Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in Liberty Hill
Inks Lake is at a normal level with stained water and temperatures around 79°. The fishing has been excellent lately, with some of the best action coming from schools of quality bass feeding heavily on large gizzard shad around offshore rock.
Big topwater baits and large swimbaits have been producing well when targeting these feeding schools. Finding areas holding good concentrations of gizzard shad has been the key to locating active bass, and once the right group of fish is found, anglers have opportunities to catch multiple quality fish from a relatively small area.

LAKE BELTON - Surface temperature 86.6F. Elevation 1.5 feet low and falling. White bass fishing is consistent during the first and last hour of light. If fish appear on the surface, use Cork Rigs with Sandy Sandwich Streamers imitating young-of-the-year shad. When fish do not appear on the surface, work MAL Bridge lures vertically or horizontally as indicated by sonar up to three hours past sunrise or up to 90 minutes prior to sunset. Downrigging with #12 or #13 Pet Spoons will help cover ground to help you zero in on places where these other tactics may be used. Hybrid...
STILLHOUSE HOLLOW RESERVOIR - Surface temperature 86.6F. Elevation 1.04 feet low and falling. White bass fishing is most consistent in the three hours following sunrise. Work MAL Bridge lures vertically using a "smoking" tactic with spinning gear allowing bait to fall all the way to bottom, removing slack, then cranking the lure at a moderate cadence

**Inks Lake Fishing Report – Early September**
Inks Lake is currently about 0.75 feet below full pool, with water temperatures around 83° and visibility ranging from roughly 2–5 feet. Bass are being caught around shallow cover on urchin-style baits and drop-shot rigged finesse worms, providing consistent opportunities throughout the day.
Some of the more exciting action has been coming from schools of bass feeding on large gizzard shad offshore. These schools are providing opportunities for quality fish, with large swimbaits and big topwater baits producing the best results when the bass are actively feeding. Overall, anglers have a good mix...

**Lady Bird Lake Fishing Report – Early September**
Lady Bird Lake is at a normal level with stained water and about 3–4 feet of visibility. Water temperatures are around 80°, and the most consistent fishing has shifted back toward submerged vegetation in roughly 5–10 feet of water.
Urchin-style baits fished in and around the vegetation have been producing the best action, with drop-shot rigged finesse worms also catching fish in the same areas. The roaming offshore schools that provided much of the action during the summer have become less prevalent, making productive stretches of submerged grass the best areas to

Bass are beginning to settle into summer patterns and are increasingly grouping into schools around submerged vegetation in 5–15 feet of water. Neko-rigged creature baits have been producing the most reliable action, while topwater stick baits have been a great option for targeting active fish feeding higher in the water column. Anglers who spend time covering water and locating productive stretches of vegetation are finding the best success, with opportunities to catch multiple fish once an active group is located.
