Lake Austin Fishing Report - July 9, 2008

On the water July 9, 2008 · Lake Austin · by Bryan Cotter, Texas Hawgs

There's nothing better than watching a youngster land their biggest fish ever, much less their first. ;-) Here's a nice 8lb-2oz pig Kate caught when I took her family out. She's 1 of triplets and they all had a good time catching their first ever fish. Started out pretty slow but as the sun went down the bass started slamming our baits. Down one stretch we were getting bit on darn near every cast. We were using mostly flukes and creature baits. Let's just say perch colors were a good choice. 8) When Kate caught this bass, it was the 5th one under 1 tree that was hanging out over the water. Nice. Kate didn't want to hold the fish so I talked her mom into it.
