Among Towne Lake’s more extravagant amenities like the upcoming Boardwalk, there’s also classic things to do like fitness centers and hiking trails. But don’t miss out on another great catch from living by a lake - our fishing holes are populated with Largemouth Bass, White Crappie, and Sunfish, all part of a managed fishery program to provide an ideal fish habitat.
Fishing has been a family tradition for ages, bringing together generations and making new stories that stretch on in our memories long after that first catch. There’s almost always something new to gain from going fishing - whether it’s a fresh fillet dinner or grandpa’s secret casting technique, almost everyone has a fishing story to share. Want to be inspired? Check out these great fishing stories from Field and Stream, and capture that spirit of whiling the time by a pole. When you’re ready to test out your skills, there’s always a place and time to go fishing nearby when you’re living in Towne Lake.
Outside of Towne Lake, you can always check out some great spots in Houston. Thanks to the Neighborhood Fishin’ program, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department partners up with local governments to stock up catfish and neighborhood trout frequently throughout the year, so there’s always a place to take your bait to. Here are some places in Houston you can relax and cast your lines at, waiting for the big one to bite.
