November Fly Fishing Report

To all who've recently subscribed to our newsletter: Thank you for joining!


Fall is here, and the bass bite is on! The changing seasons will increase a variety of bug hatches. It won't be long before the first trout stocking on the Guadalupe river. Some cooler temps and cloud cover should make for some great streamer fishing. November is a great time to book a trip to experience some epic fly fishing. Check out http://actionangler.net/ to book a trip, buy some gear or gift certificate, or get up to speed on the latest river info.


RIVER CONDITIONS

The flows on the Guadalupe below Canyon Lake are 100 CFS. We are recommending half day float trips for trout because of the lack of water. A full day float trip is great for bass. This is the time to enjoy all the warm water species the Texas Hill Country has to offer. Many great fishing stories of bass biting on poppers and streamers. The Canyon Lake level is finally full. Flows below the dam could change at any time. It's very important to keep a watch on the river flows. Wading can become dangerous if you are on the river when the dam suddenly increases its flow. We recommend visiting http://www.grtu.org/flow/ to stay informed of the lake level and dam release. Make sure to book a trip soon to secure your date.


FLY SHOP and RIVER ACCESS

The Action Angler fly shop and river access has now reopened. Masks will be required to enter the fly shop, and the number of customers are limited to 4 at a time. The door to the shop will likely be locked in order to control the traffic inside the shop. Purchases can be made through our website at any time of the year.


We've added a new boat to the fleet that provides more room and comfort for our bass and trout trips. Check out the photos on Facebook or Instagram of our new Boulder Boatworks drift boat. Check out http://actionangler.net/ to book a trip, buy some gear or gift certificate, or get up to speed on the latest river info. (All of our guides have been vaccinated for COVID-19)
