The Brazos River has been fishing exceptionally well lately with healthy flows creating ideal conditions for a true mixed-species experience. We’ve been seeing some very healthy bass eating on mouse patterns, and there are still several big females holding on beds.

The consistent water flow has really kept the action steady, leading to productive multi-species days. Along with largemouth smashing topwater flies, anglers are also finding solid numbers of spotted bass and freshwater drum throughout the system. One of the highlights recently has been encounters with oversized longnose gar, including fish pushing 48” and larger.

Carp fishing continues to improve
as well, with plenty of opportunities at fish actively feeding in the shallows. Sight-fishing conditions have been good, and patient presentations are getting rewarded.

Overall, the Brazos is offering a diverse and exciting fishery right now with quality bass fishing, aggressive topwater eats, powerful gar, and consistent shots at shallow-water carp all in the same outing.

We have been out battling the wind and cold, but the bowfishing has been great and will continue to improve as we head into March!

We had a couple of trips the last few nights and wanted to wait to send this over. We had a lot of rain last week, which caused the lakes to rise by 1-2 feet! With that, the big fish have followed, and fishing has been great. It will probably stay great going into the spring with all the water we have in our lakes.

Fishing Report December brings cold weather, but with it comes the big buffalo up shallow! If you're looking to catch a ton of big fish, winter is one of the best times to go! This couple put 71 fish in the boat in just 4 hours!

The high water we experienced in late spring early summer has set us up for an incredible summer. While the striper and white bass fishing has slowed down we have seen an increase in activity from other species.
Largemouth are good on poppers in the morning and late evening, while slow sinking streamers around brush and cut banks have filled the slower parts of the day.
Spotted bass have moved into the riffles in numbers and can be caught in all water columns. A popper dropper rig with any small streamer has brought a ton of doubles to hand.

Carp
are in vegetation at sunrise and sunset, and can be found in slower water behind tail outs and riffles throughout the day. Crawfish, damsels, and jelly’s have put fish in the net.
Gar, drum, and sunfish have filled in slower parts of the day.

Post spawn bite is in full swing! If your looking for a new PB Bass on the fly now is the time to hunt them! The Brazos is a year round fishery but it doesn't get much hotter than it is right now! They are crushing poppers in the morning and willing to chase bait all day!

    My nephew and I recently went on a fishing kayak tour on the Brazos River, and we had a fantastic experience with our guide, Shane. From the very start, it was clear that he has a deep knowledge of the river—he knew exactly where to go and gave great advice on how and where to fish. Shane was incredibly patient with both of us, making sure we felt comfortable and confident the entire time. He took the time to explain techniques and answer questions without ever making us feel rushed. His calm, friendly approach really made the trip enjoyable. Thanks to his guidance, we had a successful outing and learned a lot along the way. If you’re considering a fishing trip on the Brazos, I would definitely recommend Shane as your guide. He made it a memorable experience for both me and my nephew.

    Tough day on the water but was grateful for the effort Clayton put in. He scouted for days before the trip and unfortunately the birds just werent down yet, but he gave us every chance we could get for the birds that were around. Looking forward to hunting with him again in a week or two when more birds are down in central TX.
