Just a short drive from the park, the Indianola Fishing Marina is a local institution.

The Indianola Fishing Park offers free public fishing access along the bay shoreline — no boat required. It’s a great spot for bank fishing for redfish, drum, and sheepshead, and the sunsets over Matagorda Bay are absolutely stunning.

Lavaca Bay offers excellent wade fishing and kayak fishing opportunities, with multiple public access points near Port Lavaca. Spring trout and redfish action in the bay’s shallow grass flats is some of the best in the region.
