Fork - hundreds of days there starting in 1985 I think. AC Plugs by the bridge at Big Mustang. Dropping heavy jigs in the grass. I've never caught a double digit. I'm certain I've had three or four on, but dang. In it's heydey it was awesome. Wasp nests the size of basketballs and 100+ fish a day per person with lots of 4 - 7 pounders mixed in there.

Falcon - only been 4 times. Fishing with Robert Amaya in Tigers we got to a little stretch of a small creek channel. Robert tied up the boat to a tree. 4 or 5 feet deep on the flat near the bank and dropped into about 8 - 10'. He never fished it. Pitched a jig along about a 150 yard stretch and caught 9 fish, all over 6 pounds. Best five were just over 38 pounds. I had a dang picture Roberts wife took for us at the county ramp, but dang I can't find it. What a great place to fish!

Roberts- I had many horrible days on Roberts, but man when it was on...it was ON! Hydrilla like crazy fishing Sand Creek in the spawn. When they dropped Roberts to '18 feet low I went out with one of the original hand held Garmin GPS and marked open areas to run, tank dams, creek channel bends, ditches, etc. Took me 5 or 6 trips and I spent all day just marking stuff. Had to take off my shoes to walk over to some of the stuff. A few weeks later I went out there again and tried to use it. Battery dead. Replaced batteries...nada. Called Garmin. "Internal battery must have died ". Lost EVERYTHING!! All they offered was to replace the unit, which they did. But still. If you think there's no trees from Wolf island to the dam...google earth! Its a forest. That lake ALWAYS gave me a high sphincter factor!

Cedar Creek - Yeah, I know. But Cedar Creek had TONS of hydrill in it back in the early 80's and not so many "pleasure crafts". First bass I ever caught over 6 pounds was on CC on a jig. If the largemouth weren't happening the sandies or hybrids were always nearby. Plus I recall gettin jiggy with it with a gal out in the middle of the lake on my boat in broad daylight during the week...He did say "memorable".

Falcon and Ivie.

Have properties on both and they may be both dry in a few years. High risk high reward

Fork - Lots of memories taking off during the first full moon in March to sight-fishing with my dad. I saw em and he caught em.

Richland Chambers - Won a lot of money the first five years it was open. Lots of fun flipping green willow on tank dams. Only time I've ever fished two tournaments on the same day. Won a TXU employee's club tournament and placed 2nd in the Bank One Open which was the first open tournament on the lake. That was a good day! Credit to Johnny Wood for finding those fish. I had a Honey Hole top 6 tournament the week before on Rayburn and had never been on the lake. I just showed up and fished.

Fairfield - Again, lots of memories as a kid catching big bass (and redfish) with my dad. First lake I ever fished in a boat by myself.

Sam Rayburn - What a lake! Good thing I live five hours away. If I lived close to that lake, I would probably be divorced.
