Los Finados Lake in Kenedy County: How and When to Fish It

• Overview

  Look for Los Finados Lake in Kenedy County, Texas. It sits 18 miles in from the sea. It measures about 224 acres, which is a comfortable size for bank fishing. Shoreline comes to about 3.1 miles, small enough to learn in a day. It lies lower than most water we list in Texas. For a base, Falfurrias sits 22 miles out. The big place round here is Corpus Christi, 60 miles distant. No boundary runs near, so the county rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Los Finados Lake

  Depth here is unknown, so count the lead down before committing. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. On Los Finados Lake the quiet end is the one worth the extra effort. A slow retrieve near cover beats a fast one over open water.

• Seasonal Patterns

  On the long-term average, July reads 84°F and January reads 56°F. The water stays warm and open throughout. Late winter and spring fish steadiest here. March through May is the strongest run, with October and November a second stretch. Los Finados Lake runs to that rhythm year in and year out.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access status is simply unknown for this water. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. No built facilities appear in mapping around this water. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. Failing this one, try Cayo Grande, 7 miles away. Nothing here settles the position at Los Finados Lake for certain.
