Good evening everyone!
I am moving to Austin for work in the next year from Atlanta Ga where we troll herring/Shad for stripers. What lakes in the area of Austin offer this same fishing experience? From my research it looks like Buchanan is the best but isn’t as developed with houses with docks? Maybe this is due to extreme variations in water level due to its purpose as a lake itself? What about Travis and the lake in the middle? Are they stocked or do they just get residual fish that get through the Buchanan dam? It looks like tracks is much more developed housing and docks wise than Buchanan. Appreciate in advance any guidance as my ultimate goal is to set up my life in Austin, keeping my boat at a marina or near by the water until i can afford a home on a lake with a dock where i can retire into striper fishing. Does Austin have a lake/lakes for this? Thanks!
