Lake Travis - Travis, TX Fishing Report on 29th May, 2024

Hey there, fellow anglers! Captain Wyatt here with your latest fishing report for Lake Travis. It's been an exciting week on the water, and I’m thrilled to share the highlights with you.

Weather: We’ve had partly cloudy skies with temperatures ranging from a cool 68°F in the morning to a warm 85°F by afternoon. Winds have been gentle at 5-10 mph from the southeast, making for some pleasant fishing conditions.

Water Conditions:

Water Temperature: A steady 72°F Water Clarity: Clear to slightly stained, with visibility up to 10 feet Water Level: Slightly above average, which has been great for accessing different spots Fishing Overview: The fish are active and biting well across the lake. We’ve had success with various species, including largemouth bass, Guadalupe bass, catfish, and sunfish.

Bass Fishing:

Largemouth Bass: The action has been excellent. We’ve been hitting rocky points, submerged brush piles, and docks with great results. Early mornings are prime time for topwater lures like frogs and poppers, while midday success comes with crankbaits and spinnerbaits. Texas rigs and drop shots near structure have also been effective. Remember to target shaded areas and deeper water as the sun gets higher.

Guadalupe Bass: These little fighters are active, especially in shallow rocky areas and near creek mouths. Small crankbaits, soft plastics, and inline spinners have been doing the trick. Focus on the banks and shallows early in the morning and late in the afternoon.

Catfish:

Channel Catfish: The bite has been good. We’ve found them in deep channels, near creek inlets, and around submerged timber. Cut bait, stink bait, and chicken liver have been working well, especially at night. Use a slip sinker rig to get your bait down to them.

Blue Catfish: These guys have been a bit more elusive but still catchable. Look for them on main lake points and in deep holes. Fresh shad and live bait are your best bets. A fish finder can help locate schools in deeper water.

Sunfish:

Sunfish Species: The sunfish bite has been excellent, perfect for kids and beginners. We’re catching them in shallow coves, around docks, and in weed beds. Worms, small jigs, and crickets are all you need. Light tackle makes for a fun and productive experience.
