Directions to Falcon Lake:

Falcon Lake is located on the Mexican border about a 5 hour drive from Bastrop.  Please note that half of the lake is in Mexican waters and if you plan to fish the Mexican side you will need a special fishing license.

A friend on JR’s and Willie has a cabin we can stay at on Highway 16, about a mile towards Zapata, past State Park Road Arroyo Velleno intersection, approximately 6 – 8 miles from Zapata.  It is a blue cabin visible from Highway 16 on the right hand side.  JR will have the key for access. Accommodations are very basic so remember to bring your own bedding and supplies.  There are also hotels in the area if you would prefer. 

Reminder:  Make sure if you are staying in the cabins it is very basic so remember to bring your own bedding and supplies.  Don’t forget extension cords to charge batteries also for you boats.  Hope to see everyone down in Zapata.  Good luck
