UPDATE: 06/05/25

Summers here we had some well need rains, flows have picked up a little but will more than likely return to where they were before. With temperatures on the rise you’ll want to beat the heat fishing in the mornings and evenings. Be sure to pack water and sun protection and know your limits.

San Marcos River: Flows at 123CFS, Conditions: clear water and steady flows makes excellent fishing conditions. Bass are actively feeding in deeper runs and along submerged logs. Sunfish and Guadalupe bass are also hitting well around structures and eddies. Work your flies slowly along current seams and under overhangs. Lots of action on top water bugs along the bank. Early mornings and late in the evening have produced the best strikes.

Hot flies: Clouser minnow, Bass popper, Kreelex minnow, or any Crayfish pattern

Canyon Lake: 45.4% full. Conditions: Clear water minimal stain with activity increasing at dawn and dusk. Largemouth Bass are aggressively hitting top water frog patterns around the edges of weed beds and rocky coves early and late in the day. During midday, switch to subsurface flies any bait fish pattern will bring success. Look for Bait fish schools near the main lake points and transition zones. Low boat activity has made fishing excellent especially for kayakers. please be aware of your surroundings.

Successful Patterns: Woolly Buggers, Bunny Leech, Meat Whistle. Clouser Minnow, Dragonfly patterns, Game Changer.

Guadalupe River: 96.4CFS Conditions clear water. The tube hatch has begun! Bass and sunfish can be found in slower water swinging small crayfish patterns along rock ledges.
