In 2020, 24 Campers caught over 1,000 Largemouth Bass in each Session, and had a ton of fun in the process. Lake Bastrop continues to prove itself as an incredible location for Outdoor Texas’ Bass Fishing & Fly Fishing Camp. The goals of the Camp are to take each Camper and improve their knowledge and their skills as they relate to fresh water fishing. The Instructors make sure each Camper improves their abilities whether they are a beginner or a veteran fisherman. South Shore Park on Lake Bastrop with its new dining hall, lakefront pavilion, and lakefront cabins provides the perfect spot for Outdoor Texas Camps to maximize the Camps efforts for safety, learning, fun and FISHING!!!
