    I am going to purchase a catfish rod for larger catfish and carp 6-20lb+ I will have a casting reel put on it. I have no clue what rod to get besides that it needs to be med/heavy. Price range would be <100$(50$ more preferable). Thanks for advice in advance. Nate

    Hey all! Trying to go catfishing early Saturday morning on LT. What's the best bank access (where there's actually water) for the best catfishing? I haven't been out to any of the parks, but I've read that Pace Bend and Bob Wentz are okay. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!

    Hey guys- Recently had a local bait shop guy tell me that the catfish were good in Bull Creek- anybody know how far upstream the cats will go to feed in the evenings? Do they make it all the way up near the fire station? I'm stuck without a yak for now, so I am limited on where I can get to...

    Here I am again, asking for last minute advice, the night before I plan on going fishing. I've lurked a little and saw that there was some luck with stripes and whites, but all trolling from boats. Has anyone had any recent luck in the hydrilla and reeds near the launch ramp? Is the fishing...

    A friend of mine went under water for half a block when the edge of a sand bar unexpectedly broke off under his weight. It threw him into current and he was lucky to touch bottom so he knew which way was up. He thought he was done for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeoGEPy3WOE

  17. Tips and Techniques
    Much like "avg-joe", I've been fishing Austin and the surrounding area for years and I can easily say that within the past 3 years I may have caught 5 or 6 fish (not including perch). I'm 20 years old and I love to fish but I guess I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to fishing. I...
