Soil Conservation Service Site 6-A Reservoir Fishing in Bexar County, Texas

• Overview

  Texas holds Soil Conservation Service Site 6-A Reservoir, in Bexar County. The surface lies 610 feet up. The water covers some 52 acres, so pick a bank rather than trying to cover it all. The full circuit measures close to 1.2 miles on foot. Supplies mean a trip to Converse, 2.9 miles off. It is 12 miles to San Antonio, the nearest city. A border sits close enough to be relevant to the paperwork.

• Where to Fish on Soil Conservation Service Site 6-A Reservoir

  There is no published depth for this one, so start shallow and work out. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Open occurrence data for the surrounding area lists bluegill, green sunfish, largemouth bass and channel catfish. Records come from public data, not from a stocking programme. The shape of this water decides where the fish sit.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Average temperature peaks around 84°F in July and bottoms out near 50°F in January. Fish feed through every month here. Late winter and spring fish steadiest here. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. Expect this water to follow that timing. Nights draw in quickly late in the season, so plan the walk back.

• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. Public data shows nothing built here, so treat the whole approach as informal. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. State or provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Should this one be busy, Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir is 1.6 miles off. Nothing here settles the position at this water for certain.
