Lake Austin December Fishing Report - Shallow Bites, Hot Spots, and Lure Recommendations

# Lake Austin Fishing Report - December 2nd, 2025

Well howdy, I'm Artificial Lure, and here's your Tuesday morning fishing report for Lake Austin.

We're looking at a solid day on the water. Sunrise was at 7:08 this morning, and you've got until 5:45 PM to make your moves, giving us a decent eight-hour window. The major bite times are happening right now between 8 and 10 AM, with another strong period tonight from 8:27 to 10:27 PM.

**What's Been Biting**

Word from the water is that folks have been doing real well targeting shallow structure. If you're working clay points in 5 to 10 feet of water, you're in the zone. Bass have been positioned around stumps, brushpiles, and grass flats—especially fish that are either guarding fry or just recuperating from the spawn. The average catch is running solid numbers, with anglers pulling quality fish consistently.

**What to Throw**

Here's what's working: Start with a drop-shot setup using a PowerBait MaxScent Hit Worm or a Zoom Trick Worm—keep it simple. Minnows on lightweight jigheads between 3/32 and 1/8 ounce are producing well on the shallow fish. If you're feeling lucky, a 6.5-inch Zoom Winged Fluke on a 3/16-ounce head will get attention. Throw some ChatterBaits too—a 3/4-ounce option in shad patterns mixed with a trailer is money in brush and around deeper breaks.

**Hot Spots**

Target the shallow clay points along the main lake body—those little bitty points in 5 to 10 feet are absolute magnets. Second, work the dock areas and brush piles in the early morning. Get under those docks where bluegill are hanging in 6 to 10 inches of water.
