Head out with your pro guide Derek for an action-packed day of whacking the Bass on Lake Austin. Beyond the fun water sports and party coves, Lake Travis is in fact known for its big bass!

He likes to target these species on light tackle gear using a variety of bass soft plastic and hard baits. Whichever flavor suits your fancy, Derek can definitely accommodate. Derek can take up to 2 guests on these half-day adventures. You will be fishing aboard his 18ft bass boat, which is suited to all your needs on Lake Travis. The vessel is powered by a 115 Yamaha engine that will power you across the smooth surface of the lake with speed. Derek masterfully guides the vessel to put you on your prey, taking you to his favorite fishing holes on the lake. Derek can provide all the fishing gear for you: rods, reels, artificial lures, and light tackle for you, but encourages you to bring your own if you'd like as well. Otherwise feel free to bring your favorite snacks, drinks, and don't forget your Texas fishing license. Get ready to whack some bass! Read More

What are the most popular months to fish in Stillhouse Hollow Lake?

Fishing in Stillhouse Hollow Lake follows a seasonal pattern, offering anglers varied opportunities throughout the year.

Anglers can often find success using a variety of baits and lures, such as spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and soft plastics, to target bass in the lake's abundant cover and structure.

Additionally, cooler temperatures often result in less boat traffic on the lake, providing a more peaceful and enjoyable fishing experience for those seeking solace in nature. Overall, Stillhouse Hollow Lake's fishing seasons offer something for every angler, from the excitement of springtime bass fishing to the serene beauty of autumn outings on the water.

    Bryan got us hooked onto over a dozen Bass! He was knowledgeable of all the fishing holes and techniques. We had a great time and good laughs! Highly recommend.

    My son and I recently went on a guided trip with Derek and we could not be happier! Originally we were scheduled for Lake Austin, but Derek had gotten some news that we should hit Lake Travis instead, and it definitely paid off! His knowledge of the lake and guidance with us novice fishermen (and just a good guy all around) led to some fun results!

    Logan . with Derek R. of Austin, Texas

  • ★★★★★
    Derek did a great job. Even though the weather was a little cold and the fish weren’t too hungry, we hit multiple different spots and everyone on the trip landed something! We also nearly landed a 25 pound mega catfish that would’ve been a personal best! All in all, awesome day, awesome guide.
