Lewisville Lake Fishing Barge would be an option. While not from the bank, there's plenty of bass to be caught, along with varied species. Good luck!

Just need to check and make sure its not under water. Cant remember high the lake has to be for it to be closed. I haven't put in there the past week to see it.

I know this isn't close to Garland, but I'm putting it out there in case anyon else reads this post that is handicapped. Cassels Boykin Park on Rayburn has a nice dock that is handicap accessible.
