The Best Hunting and Fishing - El Campo, Texas

El Campo is the focal point for the best hunting and fishing in Texas. Here is why:

1) Migratory Geese, Ducks and Cranes - the canadian geese come down three separate migratoty paths during the winter months. All three of these paths lead through El Campo, Texas. The paths also merge right before El Campo, Texas and split up right after El Campo, Texas. There is no greater population of ducks and geese than El Campo and its neighboring towns.

2) If you want to go fishing on the Gulf Coast, one of the best spots is Matagorda Bay. There are plenty of trout, redfish and flonder in the area. Matagorda Bay is 38 miles directly south of El Campo Texas on Texas Highway 71.

3) If deer is more your style, 35 miles north of El Campo lands you right in the middle of the "Deer Hunting Capital of Texas" in Sheridan, Texas and nearby Columbus. Once again just take Texas Highway 71, except this time go north.

4) Huge numbers of white-winged doves that have moved into the area and stayed.

5) El Campo sits on US 59 and Texas Highway 71. It is just over an hours drive southwest of Houston, Texas.

El Campo is truly in the middle of the best the outdoors has to offer. Whether you want to hunt duck, goose, dove, crane, deer or go fishing, everthing is right there for you. There are plenty of guides and lodges to accomodate you. New hotels are being constructed to take care of all the hunting vacations.
