Stillhouse and Belton Lakes?

Featured Replies

Heading down to fish both the lakes the first of Dec. Thinking about fishing the of Stillhouse two days and Belton fishing for the other two days. Does anyone have any good places to start? I would like to beat my pb again. Thanks for any help.

My brother lives in Killeen and fishes Stillhouse all the time... he says there is a log jam there in one corner of the lake that they've pulled many 8-10lb bass out from under.  I'll try to remember to give him a call this evening and get more details... I don't remember where it is located on Stillhouse, but I told him he better take me there next time I go up there!  On another note, Stillhouse is one of the most beautfiul places I've fished... clear, green water, tall white cliffs in places... rocky bottom... totally different than southeast Texas lakes/reservoirs.  When I fished there in June, we'd simply pull up to the bank, climb up high to where we could look down into the water, and we could spot all the fish in the cove we were in... that's how clear the water is.  I told him he was more of a "bass hunter" than a "bass fisherman"... he'd see which one he wanted, then throw a lure at it!  Sight fishing for bass... no guessing about whether they were actually down there or not.

Hey pitt, no luck... I talked to my sister-in-law and my bro is in the field for a week (Army, Fort Hood, there in Killeen).  Wish I could remember where he told me it was... for some reason I think it was on the far northeastern side of Stillhouse, by the boat ramp there... a mass of fallen trees had washed up against the shoreline, extending out into the water a good bit.  One of the most popular baits my bro and his friends use is a rubber swimbait, like the Storm Wild-eye Shad.  He showed me one last time he came to my house that was the biggest rubber swimbait I had ever seen... but said he cleaned up on it! 

Shoot, sorry bout that... hope you get this info in time and it helps a little bit... tight lines!
