Fly fishing · Smallmouth Bass
Devils River, Val Verde County, Texas
The Devils River is a limestone, aquifer-fed gem — the clearest water in Texas and more challenging paddling than the Rio Grande. Two to four days by canoe after smallmouth bass, on a river that takes real experience to run.

Far West Texas Outfitters
The Devils is a limestone, aquifer-fed river and the clearest water in Texas. It is also harder paddling than the Rio Grande, and access is tightly controlled, so a guide who knows it matters more here than anywhere else they run. They have ten years on this water.

They also run single-day fly fishing and light-tackle trips on the Devils from three different sections of river, out of a base at a local bed and breakfast, if a day on the water is what you are after.
Trips run for a minimum of two people and a maximum of eight. Shuttles and ground transport to and from the river are included; gratuities are not. Your Texas fishing licence is not included.
