Lake Brownwood is located north of the city of Brownwood, Texas and is filled with many coves and creeks which provide a variety of habitat for its Largemouth Bass, Crappie, White Bass, and Catfish. The reservoir is 7,300-acres and was created by the damming of the Pecan Bayou, a tributary of the Jim Ned and Colorado River. 

All fishing in Lake Brownwood if managed under the general state-wide rules and regulations set by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Anglers who are 17 years and older will need to purchase a freshwater fishing license from a local sporting goods store or online.

The best fishing tip for catching White Bass is to fish during the summer months as the sun comes up or just as the sun is going down. Cast with a small slab amongst the creeks and river channels where the water is 10-25 feet deep. You can also spot White Bass schooling their bait in the open water areas and quickly move to their location in a fishing technique called “Jump Fishing”. Largemouth Bass fishing tips include casting in the rocks and points with topwater lures, crankbaits, and jigs.

Other great places to fish near Brownwood are Possum Kingdom Lake and Lake Buchanan.
