lbj grasslands lakes - crystal lake, balck creek, etc. Out there in denton. Muenster lake in muenster by gainesville is amazing, southlake in farmersville is a drive for you but most lillypad covered water in the metroplex and a tpn of fun... Marine creek lake and mountain creek lake...
Launching and fishing the creeks north end of joe pool is fun too, loyd park ramp dumps right into creek there. Miss the heck out of my kayak and pond prowler, probably have to buy another soon!
