Fishing
Fishing in Deep South Texas is a hotspot of fish friendly salt and fresh water. Deep Sea and Laguna Madre Bay offer private guided and party boat opportunities. Surf, pier, bay flats, and jetties offer bank and wade salt-water fishing. The bay has great Speckled Trout, Flounder, and Red Fishing even with fly rod tackle. Fresh water canals, lakes, resacas, and the Rio Grande River offer catfish, bass, and croppy. Tackle, bait, and guides are plentiful from Brownsville, South Padre Island – SPI, and Port Isabel - PI. Rental boats are available also.
Rio RV Park offers a 24/7 fish cleaning facility with running water, basin, and lighted for cleaning after dark. The work area has a double sink and cutting area. An electric filet knife works well on the 120V AC GFI plug in. We are 20 minutes to Boca Chica Beach and PI, 25 minutes to SPI, minutes to canals, resacas, ship channel, and the Rio Grande River. The park owner is knowledgeable of many out of the way hotspots.
