Big Bend Region Week of February 11, 2026
- Amistad
- SLOW. Water stained 59 degrees; 64.96 feet below pool. Water levels at Lake Amistad continue to drop and are now nearing 65 feet below pool. Despite recent cold fronts, water temperatures have climbed into the high 50s. Bass fishing remains challenging overall, though quality fish are being caught at times, with the most consistent bites coming off the tops of ledges in 15-20 feet of water near steep drop-offs, as well as in remaining grass beds in pockets with gradually tapering depths. Crappie reports have been limited over the past couple of weeks. Catfishing has been fair, with glow nightcrawlers producing the best results. Report by Kurt Dove, Amistad Bass Guide
