Are you looking for the best dove-hunting experience in Texas and the entire country? Look no further than White Wing Fields, where they have cultivated a hunting lease of nearly 400 acres along the banks of the historic Rio Grande River for over 25 years. Their sunflowers and other forage are grown specifically for the white wing and mourning dove, making their fields magnets for birds on both sides of the border and migratory birds later in the season. They have the ideal combination of food, water, and roosting habitat that doves require. Not only do they offer the finest dove hunting experience in South Texas, but they also want everyone to feel at home. Hunters are welcome to set up shade tarps, bring tailgate grills and coolers, and generally make themselves comfortable. Their location is easily accessible from either South Padre Island or Arroyo City, so if you are vacationing or fishing in those places, consider adding bird hunting to your itinerary. Come to White Wing Fields and experience the thrill of dove hunting today.

If you're looking for an exciting fishing competition in Texas, take advantage of the Texas International Fishing Tournament, the largest of its kind in the state. Head to the event with a full gas tank and cast your line to win some money in this offshore competition. The tournament has three divisions: bay, tarpon, and offshore, and it takes place on Port Isabel and South Padre Island, surrounded by the Laguna Madre Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Anglers of all ages participate in the event, which attracts thousands of spectators. During the two-day competition, bay anglers will weigh their speckled trout, redfish, and flounder catches. At the same time, offshore fishermen will compete for the giant blue marlin, white marlin, and sailfish catches. If you're not up for fishing on a boat, you can still enjoy the action from the shore by hanging out at the docks.
