If you enjoy fishing for bass or catfish, add Choke Canyon Reservoir to your bucket list. It is a 26,000-acre lake in the south-central part of the state, at Three Rivers, TX. The lake also maintains populations of crappie, sunfish, gar and white bass. Two boat ramps and several area campgrounds simplify camping and fishing, and a great place to bring the family. Fishing options span the 130 miles of shoreline offering deep and shallow brush and trees, rocky points and humps, and aquatic vegetation. Bank fishing is an option at various locations around the lake, and boats of all kinds provide access to some of the less-accessible shoreline areas. Canoes, kayaks, fishing boats and pleasure boats are all welcome here. During spring, anglers have the potential of catching a lunker over 10 pounds. Spring and Fall feature shallow-water fishing while most of the fish move deeper in summer and winter.
