Corn Creek is a public river in McCulloch County and Brown County, Texas, managed by State of Texas (public-trust water). It is a public-trust water — you can fish it with a Texas licence; bank access is at public river-access points and bridges. Public access confirmed via public-trust river.
A Texas river — largemouth, Guadalupe and spotted bass in the current, panfish and Rio Grande cichlid around the structure, channel and flathead catfish in the holes, and gar on the flats.
It runs roughly 8 miles through the Central Texas region. Anglers here mostly fish for largemouth bass, guadalupe bass, smallmouth bass, spotted bass; bluegill, redbreast sunfish, channel catfish, flathead catfish are also on record. The nearest other mapped waters on PiscaMaps are Dry Prong Deep Creek and Herberg Lake.
Species from TPWD DEC public fishing access and fishery survey data.
Night fishing: No statewide night-fishing closure in Texas. State parks and some city lakes have gate hours; check the specific water. Bowfishing and jugline/trotline catfishing are commonly done at night.
Boats: Most Texas fishing rivers are run by tiller boats, jon boats, canoes and kayaks; larger craft only on the lower Mississippi, Texas, St. Croix and Rainy.
Bank & bivvy camping: Bank access is at DNR water-access sites, state water-trail campsites, parks and WMAs; other banks are private riparian land.
Tackle: Statewide: largemouth bass 14-inch minimum, 5 per day. Many lakes carry a slot limit or a higher minimum (Lake Fork, Alan Henry, Caddo and others) and several have special blue/flathead catfish rules — check the TPWD Outdoor Annual for this water. Report a 13 lb-plus largemouth to the ShareLunker program.
Everyone 17 or older needs a Texas fishing licence with a Freshwater Fishing endorsement — the resident freshwater package is about $30, an all-water package about $47, and a non-resident annual about $58. A 1-day all-water licence is about $16. No separate trout stamp. Buy from Texas Parks & Wildlife. A Texas fishing licence covers public rivers. In Texas a watercourse is public if it is 'navigable in fact' (roughly a 30-foot average bed) — you may wade and fish the bed and banks up to the gradient line, but adjacent land is usually private.
Every water carries species, bank & boat access, current regulations and live water conditions — and members get Swim Mapper, Catch Logger and Trip Planner. It's the only US map with a dedicated carp-water layer.
