Рыбалка - Форт-Уэрт

The Fort Worth fishing scene consists of some of the best lakes in Texas. The city was lucky enough to be surrounded by amazing fishing spots and no matter what direction you take, you’ll stumble upon bountiful waters. As these lakes are usually within a 40-mile radius, fishing is a favorite weekend activity for locals and the best city break you can have. There’s always something to catch around here, so most fishing guides run their trips year round.

The main star of the show is Bass. They come in all shapes and sizes, meaning there’s Striped, Spotted, Hybrid, White, Largemouth, and Smallmouth. During spring you can find them in shallow water and they move to deeper spots as the temperature rises in summer. Colder months are great for targeting Crappie or Catfish.

Trips vary from 4–8 hours, depending on your goals for the day. If you’re hoping to reach a trophy specimen or catch a variety of species, it’s best to take a full day trip. All trips are suitable for both experienced anglers and novices.

One of the closest spots you can go to is Eagle Mountain Lake. Only 20 miles from the city center you can encounter some of the largest schools of White Bass. Other popular, nearby destinations are Grapevine and Lewisville Lake. Your guide will cover your fishing equipment, so you only need to purchase a freshwater fishing license.

Enjoy Fort Worth’s never-ending fishing action!
