    Lake Austin is normally too busy to ride during the heat of summer unless you go up towards close to the top
    Lake Travis you can normally find a good cove to ride in but its so big it takes forever to get around to all the different spots
    Lake LBJ is nice if you go up towards kingsland and once you go under the double bridge in the river section its always nice
    Lake Georgetown is usually too choppy to ride but its the closest to where I live and before noon and close to sunset its nice butta, I surf a lot on Gtown if I just want to get out on the water

    How is lake Belton for riding? I live in the Round Rock - Georgetown area and i think lake belton would only be 30-45min away
    Lake Belton is fairly large lake and on weekdays you can always find glass somewhere. What's nice is the shape of the lake so no matter which direction the wind is blowing and if you have common sense, you can figure out where the good spots will be. The only time its bad everywhere is if the wind gets above a steady 25-30mph. Weekends it's good early up until noon. Then the sea fleas and tubers are out.

    We are always on Lake Austin or Pedernales river. We are easy to spot, yellow and white LSV with an LSU flag flying.

    We're usually out on Medina Lake down by San Antonio in a red '03. We've seen quite a few other Moombas out there but haven't met anybody yet.

    Where do you put in on the Perd? We are thinking about heading out there for the first time this weekend. I couldn't find much info on boat ramps, so we were thinking that Pace Bend would be the best place to put in. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

    Go Tigers!

    What part of Austin are you in? There's a ramp up north and a ramp down south. I'm on the north end so we go up to Gloster Bend Park. It's up 1431 just past Lago Vista and puts you on the north end of Travis just above the mouth of the Perd. Not much traffic at the park, nice ramp, but no boat dock. I unload and have to swim out to the boat.

    Down south, put in at Camp Pedernales. It's off the road that leads into Pace Bend. When you come to the first 4 way, take a left and it brings you straight to the ramp on the Perd.

    If you haven't been on the Perd before, don't go past the bend after the bridge. It's safe a little ways past the bend, but not far enough to ride. Once you get about 1/4 mile past, there's prop killing rocks under the water from what I hear. I've never met them myself nor do I care to.

    Thanks for the info! I live in North Austin, but my boat is on 620 so we'll probably go the southern route.

    How deep is the Perd on average? Is it deep enough to surf, or just wakeboard/ski?

    When Travis is full, it's 18-25 feet. Plenty deep enough to surf
