    Lady Bird Lake is a 416-acre urban reservoir in the heart of Austin, Texas, created by the Tom Miller Dam on the Colorado River. It is one of the most accessible urban fishing destinations in Texas, where largemouth bass, channel catfish, and blue catfish can be caught from the famous hike-and-bike trail that encircles the lake. The lake is named for former First Lady Lady Bird Johnson and is a central park of Austin's celebrated outdoor culture. Spot Features: Lady Bird Lake (formerly Town Lake) is a narrow 416-acre reservoir on the Colorado River flowing through downtown Austin, Texas, flanked by the hike-and-bike trail and Austin's urban waterfront. The lake features submerged timber, rocky banks, vegetated coves, and dock pilings that concentrate bass and catfish. Kayak fishing is popular on this no-motorized-boat lake, bank fishing from the extensive trail system is also productive. Seasonality: Largemouth bass are the primary year-round sport fish at Lady Bird Lake in Austin, with peak activity in spring during the spawning period and in fall. Channel catfish and blue catfish feed actively through the warmer months. The mild Austin climate allows year-round fishing, summer heat concentrates bass activity in early morning and late evening.
