Speckled trout, snook, redfish, and others can be found in the Brownsville Ship Channel (fishing allowed in two areas located on the south side). Our fresh water "resacas" (natural reservoirs that remained following meandering of the Rio Grande as it changed course over the years), found throughout the city, hold bass, trout and the ever-challenging catfish and gar all year round.
Other places to fish around Brownsville's surrounding areas include Falcon Lake, irrigation canals, the Arroyo Colorado, Laguna Madre and, of course the Gulf of Mexico.
If surf fishing is what you prefer, you are only a 20-mile drive from beaches that provide a variety of fish, including whiting and flounder. Or, if you like a calm fishing atmosphere, the bay at Port Isabel and South Padre Island are very relaxing. Deep sea fishing in the Gulf of Mexico is available for those boating enthusiasts. Fully equipped fishing charters, complete with everything necessary, including a guide, are available. Your very own bay or deep sea fishing expedition can reward you with a trophy catch of king mackerel, tarpon or tuna among many other species.
Temporary (5-day) Non-resident Fishing: $20 Valid for 5 days in a row
