The Local Angler Fly Fishing Austin & Central Texas

Robert H. McConnell

Bayou City: An Angler’s Paradise

The fourth-largest city
 in the U.S. has a secret hiding in plain sight: All that water means 
it’s a fabulous place for fly fishing. Travel no further than to the 
city’s “concrete flats” to stalk carp with Houston’s iconic skyline as a
 backdrop. Just outside the metro area, wade in the secluded spring-fed 
waters of the Pineywoods to find spotted bass, largemouth bass, and a 
variety of panfish. Launch a canoe or kayak in nearby lakes and 
backwaters to search for gar and bowfin. Add some adventure with a trip 
to Village Creek, a fascinating biozone where bass and catfish thrive 
along with four varieties of carnivorous plants and 35 species of 
orchids. With Fly Fishing Houston & Southeastern Texas as 
your guide, discover the rewards for anglers this unique region offers, 
from inside the city limits to the countryside beyond.
