Inks Lake Fishing Report – Spring Transition
Inks Lake is at a normal level with stained water and about 2–4 feet of visibility. Water temperatures are hovering around 60°, and bass are moving through a mix of pre-spawn and early spawning patterns. Some fish are staging just off spawning areas while others are beginning to move shallow as the lake continues its transition toward the main spawn.
A reliable pattern has been fishing crankbaits and drop-shot rigs around submerged vegetation in roughly 8–12 feet of water. These areas are acting as key transition zones, and anglers who slow down and...

A reliable pattern has been fishing crankbaits and drop-shot rigs around submerged vegetation in roughly 8–12 feet of water. These areas are acting as key transition zones, and anglers who slow down and thoroughly work productive stretches of vegetation are often able to pick up multiple bites from grouped fish.

Inks Lake Fishing Report – Late Winter / Pre-Spawn Update
Inks Lake is currently at a normal level with stained water and about 2–4 feet of visibility. Water temperatures are sitting around 56°, and bass are starting to transition toward early pre-spawn patterns after the recent freeze. The main spawning activity is likely still a few weeks away, but fish are beginning to move and group up.
The most consistent action has been coming from crankbaits worked around rocky areas and shaky head rigged finesse worms fished around docks, primarily in 5–12 feet of water. Bass are often holding in...

Water temperatures are sitting around 56°, and bass are starting to transition toward early pre-spawn patterns after the recent freeze. The main spawning activity is likely still a few weeks away, but fish are beginning to move and group up.
The most consistent action has been coming from crankbaits worked around rocky areas and shaky head rigged finesse worms fished around docks, primarily in 5–12 feet of water. Bass are often holding in small groups, so anglers may experience slower stretches between bites, but it’s common to catch multiple fish once an active area is located. Slowing down and thoroughly fishing productive structure has been key to putting together solid days on the water.

January 2026- Lake Travis - fish are out deep on ledges and channel swings in 30 to 40 ft, fish very slowly with soft plastics like a drop shot or wacky worm, jigs with craw trailers also working well with a slow presentation, when the bass are feeding and a little bit more active we are catching them on umbrella rigs, small finesse swim baits, and crank baits with a very tight wobble like a rapala shad rap.

Inks Lake is currently at a normal level with stained water and about 3–4 feet of visibility. Water temperatures have dropped into the low 50s, and bass are beginning to group up as winter conditions continue to settle in. Overall, cloudy days have been producing slightly better action than bright, sunny conditions.
The most consistent bite right now has come from crankbaits and jigs worked around rocky areas in 2–14 feet of water. Bass are often holding tightly in small areas, so while there may be slow stretches between bites, it’s common to catch multiple fish once an active group...

Bass are often holding tightly in small areas, so while there may be slow stretches between bites, it’s common to catch multiple fish once an active group is located. With a strong cold front moving in, anglers can expect the lake to transition even more firmly into classic winter fishing patterns in the coming days.

Been getting into some good white bass along with quality amounts of largemouth. Especially on this cloudy windy days when the fronts are blowing through. Targeting long main lake points with brush on them fishing over the tops of the brush and on the edges. Also targeting main lake drains with a Texas rig and a dropshot.

Inks Lake Fishing Report – Late December 2025
Inks Lake is currently at a normal water level with lightly stained water and about 2–4 feet of visibility. Water temperatures are hovering around 60°, and the cooler, overcast days have been producing the most consistent action. With the recent drawdown behind us, the lake is continuing to settle into typical winter patterns.
Bass fishing has been best using finesse presentations, especially drop-shot rigged worms, along with crankbaits. One productive pattern has been targeting remaining patches of submerged vegetation in roughly 8–11 feet of water, where fish have been holding and feeding...

With the recent drawdown behind us, the lake is continuing to settle into typical winter patterns.
Bass fishing has been best using finesse presentations, especially drop-shot rigged worms, along with crankbaits. One productive pattern has been targeting remaining patches of submerged vegetation in roughly 8–11 feet of water, where fish have been holding and feeding consistently. Another reliable option has been working shallow hard cover and structure in creek arms, where both drop-shots and squarebill crankbaits have been producing steady bites.
Overall, Inks Lake is offering solid winter fishing opportunities right now, especially for anglers willing to slow down and focus on quality structure and cover.

Solid fishing right now for numbers of bass with the occasional big bite! We are targeting submerged vegetation with drop shot rigged finesse worms and Texas-rigged stick worms.

Having to sift through the little ones to get to the big ones, but the big ones are there to be caught! There are definitely some bass spawning, but we are targeting the fish that are staging on offshore hard spots just outside of spawning areas with jigs and deep diving crankbaits.

Good fishing overall right now! We are catching them around rocky shorelines with Alabama Rigs and crankbaits. Water temps are hanging around 51-57 degrees. Water clarity is at about 4-6 ft.
