  • Summary

  • For anglers heading to the Rio Grande in Texas today, November 10, 2024, here’s what you can expect for a productive and enjoyable day of fishing.

    The weather is looking pleasant with clear skies and temperatures ranging from 68°F to 82°F. Expect light winds, making it ideal for both boat and shore fishing, with no significant precipitation predicted. Sunrise is at around 7:34 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 7:04 PM, giving you ample daylight to fish.

    Since the Rio Grande is a river, tidal cycles are not a major factor, but the water levels are slightly below normal due to recent receding from the rainfall. The water temperature is around 85 degrees Fahrenheit, and the clarity is generally good, although some areas might be slightly stained due to recent flooding.

    Fishing in the Rio Grande has been good, particularly for those targeting white bass and stripers. Yesterday, anglers reported good catches of these species in the deeper waters. White bass are active in 30-50 feet around sheer ledges, especially where you find deeper bait balls. Using lures like Lil George, spoons, crankbaits, and Sabiki rigs can put you in good stead.

    Striped bass are also fair in deeper waters, around 40-60 feet, with bucktail jigs and flutter spoons being effective. Follow the shad bait balls, as the fish are right under them. Alabama rigs, underspins, and deep diving jerkbaits are also doing great.

    For hot spots, consider the areas up the Rio Grande between markers 17-23, where white bass and stripers have been plentiful. Another good spot is around the Devils River and main lake channels, where fish tend to congregate around rock ledges and bait balls.

    Overall, the conditions are ideal for a great day of fishing on the Rio Grande, so grab your gear and head out to catch some of these active fish.
