Lake Georgetown


Lake Georgetown is a typical highland type reservoir with steeply sloping banks covered with limestone rock. Because of water fluctuations aquatic vegetation has a hard time establishing itself. A moderate amount of standing timber can be found in the backs of coves and along some shoreline areas, but most cover/structure is in the form of rock ledges and boulders. In response to the lack of natural vegetation, cedar-tree fish attractors have been added to provide additional structure. They were placed by TPWD in cooperation with the Army Corps of Engineers and the Sun City Hunting and Fishing Club. Most attractors are placed on key structure spots including drop-offs, humps and roadbeds. Black bass, crappie and sunfish use the attractors for cover. Fishermen may use GPS in conjunction with a fish finder to locate these structures.
                Lake Georgetown has three boat ramps, all of which are located near the fish attractors.
