It might be a little early in the season for the really good cichlid action, they really seem to light up when they’re brooding, about a month from now. But I’ve definitely seen them active in the creeks leading into Lady Bird the past few days. Too bad you don’t have your fly rod with you! There’s some fun small water fishing on Waller and Shoal creek.

My wife and I flew into Austin via San Antonio on Thurs. for a wedding that was yesterday. I’m sorry that I didn’t pack a small fly rod. We were out walking on Lady Bird Lake yesterday and it looked great! I’ve wanted to catch some of those Texas Cichlids for years. I’ve fly fished for almost 60 years and tied flies for 50+. I’ve developed some unique methods to create very professional and effective poppers and “bugs” that I am working on a book about. I only now came across your website–too bad. We’re flying out from San Antonio to Washington State on Tues.

Tight lines, Marc
