This trip is ideal for anglers eager to target large, aggressive freshwater sportfish in South Texas. You'll spend your time on Falcon Lake, aiming to catch formidable Catfish, Gar, and Largemouth Bass—three exciting species that offer a thrilling challenge for anglers of every skill level.
Each species exhibits unique behaviors and dietary preferences, requiring different fishing strategies. Gar are ambush predators found near the mid-water column, feeding on baitfish, and occasionally small birds or animals with their sharp teeth. To catch these ancient fish, you'll use cut bait on steel leaders, facing a tough fight to bring them aboard. Catfish, on the other hand, are bottom feeders that accept various baits. You'll bottom fish for these powerful fish and battle them using heavier tackle to bring them to the surface. Lastly, Largemouth Bass are opportunistic feeders attracted to worms, baitfish, frogs, and more. You’ll target them with light tackle, casting and retrieving a variety of lures and baits.
Your fishing adventure takes place aboard Captain Joshua's 19-foot boat, which rides high in the water and offers ample shade to keep you cool and comfortable under the Texas sun. Get ready to hit the water and start landing these impressive fish!
