Coyanosa Draw is a public river in Pecos 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 lakes and reservoirs in this part of the country typically hold largemouth, smallmouth and spotted bass, channel, blue and flathead catfish, black and white crappie, and bluegill and other sunfish -- species commonly documented across the region's public waters by state wildlife agencies.
It runs roughly 47 miles through the West Texas & Big Bend region. The nearest other mapped waters on PiscaMaps are Hackberry Draw and Courtney Creek.
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.
