Crappie
Crappie fishing near Harlingen offers a change of pace from the saltwater scene. While not a crappie hotspot, the freshwater resacas (oxbow lakes) and irrigation canals around the city hold populations of these tasty panfish. Spring is the best time to target them as they spawn, but you can find them year-round in deeper areas. The Arroyo Colorado, a major resaca system, is a good place to start. Look for crappie around submerged structure like fallen trees and brush piles. Bank fishing is possible in some areas, and small boats or kayaks can provide better access. A local tip is to use small jigs or minnows under a bobber, and adjust the depth until you find the fish. While the crappie near Harlingen may not be as large as those in other parts of Texas, they can still provide a fun and rewarding fishing experience.
