Lake waxachie Crappie

Has anyone been fishing this lake? i am a tuber and want to know where I can put my tube in. not wanting secret spots just want to gt thumped.

Haven't fished it in a while. There are brush piles along the dam, toward the south end. There is a ramp close to the dam at Howard Rd. and Lakeshore Dr. There are also some brush piles in that cove area by the ramp. There is another ramp west on Lakeshore Dr. that is kinda close to the pipe line that goes across the lake. It's pretty shallow up past the pipeline.
Good luck. I've never caught much there, but I also haven't fished it all that much.

I do not see any place to park near the Pipeline or over by the Dam. Looks like it is all private property

There's a park close(ish) to the pipeline. We always just parked on the grass.

There is a boat ramp and park by the dam and a boat ramp near the pipeline but you would have to paddle a ways to get to the pipeline.

I haven't fished for crappie there yet but I would like to try.

3 ramps. Dam, mid lake, and Pipeline. parking is fine at the dam and pipeline, little tight at the middle ramp if too many others are there. There is some standing timber across from the pipeline ramp, if I remember correctly depths should be between 10-15 in that area. Haven't fished the lake in quite awhile, but there are some very solid crappie in there.

So at the pipeline. Do you park at the open area and then walk down the road that looks like it has a car junk yard on the right? It looks like house's to me. Sorry for my ignorance. I just want to fish.

There's a bathroom there by the x. A little dirt road that leads to it. Pull in there and park on the grass. And no need to apologize for anything! We all have questions about places we've never been to.

Thank You. I wish everyone would help like you have. We are not enemies on here.

No problem! None of us are born with infinite wisdom. We all learn from someone.

If you go, check the wind. It's a smaller lake but the winds on it can kick your butt. On the other side of the pipeline, there's timber. It gets pretty shallow though. Don't know if any will be up there or not.

Oh! And don't forget to hit those docks to and from the pipeline.

Maybe in those shallows during the spring or spawn. I was looking at those docks LOL

straight across to that point, out from those docks, is standing timber. Quite a bit of it and deeper than the the pipeline.

That`s GOOD info! I just want to give props to you WMB,you ROD`s454,you TRH(formerly express00) & you tloc1000 for trying to help another TFFer have success on another lake.That`s what a forum should be about IMHO but it has come to my attention that I`ve been criticized for being to free with information and ruining fishing spots that others want to keep a secret.All this was brought on simply because I asked another Tuber(I won`t mention his name because it might shame him) where he launched his tube at Cedar Creek.NOT WHERE HIS SPOT WAS, or the DOCKS he were fishing, just where he launched from.It`s as if he didn`t want me in the same water.How selfish is that?I couldn`t believe it.That`s why I didn`t chime in earlier so I Thank GOD for you guys & may GOD bless you for it.

Still learning. if I can help just let me know. I have always been fearful of trying new spot cause of the chance of failure. but failure will happen. But fishing will continue. Thanks to each of you for your help. my confidence is higher than ever.

Sirjet did you give up on Joe Pool?

Well, the way I see it is there's plenty of fish out there for everyone. None of us own the lake. Someone, somewhere taught each of us something.

Not giving up on JP. It is close to my house. but I want to broaden my spectrum. become more versatile.

BTW scruboak. My signature pics no longer represent how I look now. LOL Older, Bigger, and my hair is wayyyyyyy longer.
