I'm a Kansan who's been coming down to Ray Roberts for 15 years but I'm seriously considering going to Lake Ivie this year instead. Since I only get to Texas once a year I try to focus on big fish. Have caught a lot of 6 to 8 pounders at Roberts with one 11-9. Would you guys recommend Ivie over Roberts for fish 8 pounds and over?
Is there a good place to stay within 10 miles of the lake that's "boat friendly"? Appreciate any advice!!!

Give Jerry at Elm Creek a call on Ivie
He will take good care of you.
325-357-4776
Their place is less than a mile from the boat ramp, and can set up up with anything you need to get the 8lb'er

Jerry is great people.
The motel is very boater friendly. He has a great diner, and a pretty good tackle shop.

Jerry's the man, for sure. +1 for Jerry, he will take care of you.He has the best food on the lake, and sell tackle that works on the lake.

Agree that Elm Creek is the place to stay and Jerry will take great care of you. Would highly recommend a guide for your first trip there or at least for a day or two of the trip. Jeff Walker is absolutely the best on the lake. He can't of course promise a 10+ but he will work very hard to get you on big fish and will teach you a lot about the lake and how to fish it.
Ivie is a great lake but it can also be a tough lake to fish. It has lots of big fish in it but getting them to bite can be tough at times.
