South Texas Plains Region Week of October 29, 2025

Braunig

SLOW. Water stained; 79 degrees; Fishing has been slow overall, with redfish, black bass, stripers, and shadow cats all showing limited activity. Anglers are reporting few bites across most areas, likely due to stable conditions and warmer water. Report by Manny Martinez, Fishing With Manny.

Calaveras

GREAT. Water stained; 78 degrees; Redfish action is excellent right now with gold and silver spoons, Fishbites, and live tilapia all producing strong bites. Catfish are also biting well - both channel and blue catfish are being caught in 5-25 feet of water on stink bait and shrimp. Black bass and stripers are slow at the moment, and the water level is about one foot below normal. Report by Manny Martinez, Fishing With Manny.

Choke Canyon

GOOD. Water stained; 83 degrees; 38.07 feet below pool. Bank anglers are reporting good action on black bass, white bass, and crappie, with excellent catches of catfish and channel catfish as well. All of these reports are coming from the shoreline, as all boat ramps remain closed at this time. For the latest updates and safety information, please contact Texas Parks and Wildlife. Report by Manny Martinez, Fishing With Manny.

Coleto Creek

SLOW. Water stained; 91 degrees; 2.48 feet above pool. The water remains stained with temperatures in the high 80s to low 90s, and the lake is near normal pool level. Bass fishing is very slow, while crappie are fair, with decent action coming off brush piles. Report by Scott Springer, Fish Choke Canyon Lake

Corpus Christi Lake

SLOW. Water stained; 81 degrees; 17.00 feet below pool. Fishing activity has been light this week, but conditions are pleasant as temperatures begin to cool. Mornings have started off foggy with calm winds, giving way to slightly breezy afternoons. Nights are cooler and days more moderate as fall settles in. The current lake water temperature is 72 degrees, with today’s air temperature expected to reach a high of 93 degrees and a low of 70 degrees. Report by Glenwood Weber, Weber's Landing

Falcon

GOOD. Water stained; 87 degrees; 47.50 feet below pool. Conditions remain steady overall, with no major changes in fishing activity. The only noticeable difference is that water levels are slowly dropping. Report by Ram Reyes, Ram Outdoors

Texana

GOOD. Water stained; 78 degrees; 4.20 feet below pool. Fishing has been slow overall, though catfish remain active on the main lake. Bass and crappie action has tapered off, and with the lake elevation at 39.91 feet, conditions are expected to worsen as a cold front moves in. The front will likely slow the bite further and make the lake dangerously rough through Saturday. Report by Chad Kinsfather, Lavaca Navidad River Authority.
