Fished Black Rock co. park on Buchanan Sunday morning. I dont know the exact water temp, but even in good neoprene waders the water was  . Caught a couple dinks early on a tiny torpedo with an ultralight, great fun. As the sun got up a little i switched to a heavier rod and started throwing texas and carolina rigged plastics. After a while it seemed as i was fishing in an empty swimming pool. Water was pretty clear but zero signs of bait or fish. Finally on my wade back i threw a brushhogg that was blasted by a chunky 3-pounder. Wasn't a great fishing trip but i saw something i'll probably never see again- Buck was compltely flat and not a boat in sight

Welcome to ABF Dirt. Thanks for the report. Did you happen to notice if the ramp at Black Rock was open and usable?

Rude, Black Rock doesn't have a ramp but the adjacent Llano County Park has a brand new one. The park has not re-opened yet, they are still making final renovations, but when it does the new ramp will be usable down to a lake level of 1000 ft. At tomorrow's LBCC meeting I will try to find out when the park is scheduled to re-open.
