Fishing Forecast for Lake Austin: Ideal Conditions for Bass, White Bass, and Catfish [2:24 mins]

For Lake Austin on November 23, 2024, here’s what you can expect: First off, the weather is looking pretty good for fishing, with partly cloudy skies and a high of around 68 degrees. Sunrise was at about 6:57 AM, and sunset will be around 5:23 PM, giving you a full day on the water. The water level is slightly below pool, with a temperature of about 69 degrees and a light stain. This condition is ideal for catching bass, as they tend to be more active in these conditions. Yesterday's fishing was excellent, with bass being the main catch. You can expect to catch them in the grassy areas using flukes and divers, but the best bite is still on worms. Texas rig worms, wacky rig senkos, and weightless flukes are all working well, especially along the inside grass lines in 4-8 feet of water[2][3]. For those targeting bass, shallow crankbaits, hard and soft jerkbaits, and topwaters are also producing good results, especially around rock and brush points. If you're looking for a topwater bite, the morning hours are your best bet, especially when there's some wind[2]. White bass and catfish are also present, though they are slower. White bass can be caught on crankbaits around the lighted docks, while catfish are fair on shad and cut bait in 15-30 feet of water[2]. Hot spots include the areas around the dam and the deeper parts of the lake, particularly where you find brush piles and rocky shorelines. The main lake points and humps are also good for white bass, using jigging spoons and small shad in 28-42 feet of water[2]. Overall, it's a great day to be out on Lake Austin, with plenty of fish to go around and the right conditions to make your trip successful.
