Rio Grande Fishing Report: Stripers, Sand Bass & Catfish Action This Late Fall Morning
Hey y'all, this is Artificial Lure with your Rio Grande, Texas fishing report for Friday, November 21st, 2025.
Well folks, it's shaping up to be a classic late fall day on the border. We're looking at water temperatures holding steady in the mid-60s, and that means the fish are still feeding strong. The tide's working in our favor today with high tide hitting around mid-morning, so get out there early and make the most of it.
Now, here's what's been happening on the water. We've had some solid striped bass and sand bass activity lately. The word from local guides is that sand bass are getting ready to spawn, so they're aggressive right now. Target them in 12 to 15 feet of water near drop-offs with smaller imitation shad slabs fished right off the bottom. If the water's stained—which it has been—throw white slabs and you'll do better. We're seeing bass in the 3 to 4-pound range consistently.
The Rio Grande and Falcon Lake are your prime spots. Falcon Lake's famous for big bass and catfish, and that's where you want to focus your efforts this time of year. The Rio Grande's producing too, but conditions have been challenging with low water levels.
For your tackle box, bring crankbaits, topwater lures, and those shad slabs I mentioned. If you're targeting catfish, cut shad and perch still work, though they've been slow lately. Crawfish and small baitfish are what these fish are keying on naturally.
Sunrise is around 6:45 this morning, sunset around 5:15 this evening, so you've got a solid window to work with.
