La Pesca: Lodging With Purpose
Monday, 29 September, 2025

Meghan and Justin Brodnax dive into the world of ecotourism on Baffin Bay in South Texas. As owners of La Pesca Lodge, they share how they’re finding the delicate balance between running a successful business and protecting the fragile ecosystem that draws anglers to the bay. From encouraging catch-and-release practices to educating customers on responsible fishing, the Brodnaxes weave conservation into every aspect of their lodge operations. They are moving away from single-use plastics, hosting conservation organizations for meetings, and creating a culture where guests not only enjoy the beauty of Baffin Bay but also learn how to help preserve it for future generations.
