I don't know about Weslaco, but there is a big one in Mercedes that runs up 491, I'm sure it has fish in it.  There is also that resaca or whatever it is just north of Progreso on 1015, I have seen people fishing in there and have wanted to put my kayak in there but never have, I don't know if there are fish in there or not, the water seems to be really muddy every time I cross through there. As for baits, if I am not fly fishing I throw LITTLE crank baits and LITTLE in-line spinner baits 1/4 oz. or less.  I have never done any good with big baits or plastics at all.

Broke my record today. Caught a huge bass in the McAllen canal system almost two pounds. Fell for the old crawfish pattern drifting in the current. I saw another fish that had to go three but made a bad cast and spooked him out.  Caught a handful more bass and some panfish with them. Not bad for three minutes from the house.

i fish every now and again on a canal that runs north across 107 just west of rooth rd.  not the most consistent canal around but it works.  i've caught on anything from live nightcrawlers on a simple rig to johnson beetle spins to worden roostertails.
