Austin Kayak Fishing Locations
Posted: Thu Jun 23, 2016 1:41 pm
Hey all,
I live up north in the Fort Hood Belton area and have been fishing the Belton lake since I have been here and need a change of scenery. Also, with all the rain, Belton Lake is really high. I am sure it is everywhere nut just wanted to try a new area. I remember staying at a hotel in Austin and when I went for a run one morning on a trail along the Colorado River I noticed a lot of kayakers. As I was running the trail, I noticed what seemed to be or what used to be docking areas. I noticed a kayaker loading in and when I looked at where he parked it was only a parking area for a few areas. What I wanted to know was:
1. Where is a good place to fish?
2. Where is a good location to dock out of? (Especially a place where I can leave my car for more than a few hours.)
3. What are the fish species known to be caught our of the river?
I recently found this place called Lady Bird Lake which seems to be a nice location. Any input would be awesome. Or if anyone is willing to meet up and show me around that would be cool to.
Thanks,
Ken
