Maybe because they call the lake on the Sandy Creek Lake Fork Reservoir

Fished out there last weekend. Secondary points, 18-20 foot of water. We did pretty good considering bad weather. Lake is down a bit. This was my best fish.

Jack - I would book a date with you for sure. If nothing else we could have a blast reliving old Team Sweet Days.

Perhaps you could explain. Most reservoirs are called lakes. Few, if any lakes in Texas that are natural bodies of water.

A Lake is a body of water,
If it is for storage of water , the term reservoir is applicable.

A lake is natural, a reservoir is man made. Caddo is the only natural lake in Texas.

you can call a man made reservoir a man made lake because natural characteristics usually prevail
you can call a natural lake a natural reservoir
I wouldn't call a man made reservoir a natural lake, or a man made lake a natural reservoir
I wouldn't call a natural reservoir a man made lake, or a natural lake a man made reservoir

In the long run of geologic time, no lake gets out of here alive

Well, there are some others with asterics

Big Lake--Reagan County. Usually stays dry these days (the natural springs that feed it were disrupted by mining activity)
Sabine lake--It's mostly in Louisiana and is partly salt water
Green Lake--It's just south east of Victoria--a natural tidal lake
Natural dam lake--usually dry

Caddo is now partially managed by a man made dam, so there are those that argue it isn't 100% natural anymore.

Grew up in Big Lake, saw it full a couple of times.
