A lot of the big bend region isn't really suitable for walls, you already cannot drive a vehicle through due to the river so the main issue is small parties crossing in the hinterlands. A human patrol/drone approach would be more practical. The areas around the urban centers should certainly be fortified but having a wall along that stretch is somewhat impractical as much as I would like to see it. Southern Texas is definitely a major issue though.
