Amistad National Recreation Area is located near the town of Del Rio, TX.  Lake Amistad has a reputation for some of the best bass fishing in Texas, and has attracted anglers to this area for many years, and therefore, many recreational bass fishing tournaments are held here. Amistad NRA welcomes new as well as traditional tournament users, and we are available to discuss all aspects of tournament scheduling and logistics.

Amistad is an international reservoir -- the United States-Mexico border is marked by buoys that follow the historic channel of the Rio Grande.You may boat on either side, but if you plan to fish on the Mexican side be sure to have a Mexican fishing license and boat permit.

NOTE: Mexican law strictly prohibits possession of guns, ammunition, and illegal drugs. Anyone caught crossing into Mexican waters with said contraband will receive a mandatory prison sentence and a very substantial fine.

The City of Del Rio is a hospitable and full-service community for tournaments, including about 20  hotels and motels, 3 Bed & Breakfasts, around 10 campgrounds and RV Parks, and over 30 restaurants. The city also supports boat and motor sales and repair shops, and numerous stores featuring the latest in tackle, lures, and fishing equipment.
