The majority of bass you catch in the Llano will be Guadalupes. There are also Largemouths, Smallmouths and the usual assortment of perch. Don't expect monster fish - the average size is between 10" and 12" but each trip usually yields a couple of fish in the 2-3lb range. To keep things fun, fish with ultra-light spinning gear using 4lb test.
There are kayaks available to rent at the Castell Store. 325-247-4100
There are two trips you can take.
From the cabin downstream to Schneider's crossing (5 miles) - There is plenty of fishable water along this stretch and is usually always productive. About a mile past the cabin, the river channels up on the South side and makes for some excellent wade fishing.
Give Randy a call at the Castell Store. 325-247-4100.
Around the cabin there is some wade fishing, but the better fishing is reachable by canoe or kayak. A half-mile below the cabin is a series of rapids/pools that are good wade fishing. It can be reached by walking in the river, but a canoe makes it much easier.
Trout are released in December at the Castell bridge which is just a few hundred yards from the cabin. Call the Castell Store for stocking dates.
Check the USGS site at Mason or the USGS site at Llano for real-time river flow data. A good flow is between 75-275 CFS.
