San Angelo sits in the heart of West Texas where the North and South Concho Rivers meet, creating a surprising oasis for freshwater fishing. The area centers on Lake Nasworthy, a 1,500-acre reservoir that holds largemouth bass, catfish, and crappie year-round. Beyond the lake, the Concho River system offers smaller but productive stretches for those willing to explore beyond the main impoundment, with access points scattered through town and the surrounding ranching country.
