AUSTIN — Find everything you need to know about your favorite freshwater fish in the new Texas Fishing Guide section of Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine’s mobile app. The app, available for download on the Apple App Store and Google Play, makes it easy for anglers to explore their favorite species.

“We‘ve compiled expert information to make the Texas Fishing Guide a useful resource for all freshwater anglers,” says the magazine’s publisher Randy Brudnicki. “The app makes it easy for people to take the guide with them on their smart phone or tablet—even if there’s no Internet connection at their secret honey hole.”

Texas Fishing Guide includes:

  • 20 of the most common freshwater fish species

“Mobile devices are in everyone’s hands, so we want to present information in the easiest to use, most convenient way,” says the magazine’s art director Nathan Adams. “The Texas Fishing Guide puts Texas-specific information in your hands when you need it.”
