About Barton Creek
Barton Creek is a river flowing through Texas, United States. River fishing rewards anglers who learn to read current — fish hold in the seams between fast and slow water, behind rocks and submerged logs, and at the heads and tails of pools. At Barton Creek, working a lure or fly down-and-across the current usually outperforms casting straight upstream. Higher water concentrates fish; clear, low water makes them spookier.

Fishing Techniques
- For Largemouth bass
Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.
- For Rio Grande cichlid
Rio Grande cichlids often patrol shallow areas near vegetation or rocks, so target these areas with your bait or lure and try varying your retrieval speed.
- For Bluegill
Fish near structure like docks, weeds, or submerged trees where bluegill seek cover and food.
