This is strictly JMO.
1) Lake Houston - sucks - dead sea. Occasional good fishing in Luces Bayou. 2) Lake Conroe - great if you know the magical places to fish - good luck. 3) Gibbons Creel Reservoir - good luck - killed by power plant closure. 4) Lake Livingston - sand pit that is only good for white bass. 5) Lake Raven - big fish can be found if you have a shock boat.
lake Houston is tuff but there are fish in in it. Luce is a mudhole now. Conroe just sucks Gibbons has started generating again, start up is this month maybe 2 years before it gets good again Livingston isn't great anymore Raven is okay at times I just saw this online. Wasn't Gibbons Creek supposed to be generating already? I can understand Bryan getting involved; it's only a few miles away. What does Garland, Denton and Greenville have to do with this? What kind of recreation is going to be built in basically Anderson, Texas? There is NOTHING out there. This sounds like another Lake Decker golf course nightmare. This would have to be something that would recoup the millions of dollars it would take to de-construct the plant and "clean" the area. https://www.sierraclub.org/texas/bl...takes-hit-tmpa-backs-out-interconnection

Lake Conroe, Livingston, Lake Houston, Somerville are all nearby spots. We like to go bowfishing on conroe. Somerville is a good fishing lake but it's so dang muddy. Here lately we've just been making the track to Canyon Lake down near New Braunfels and have been real happy with it. It's a little bit more of a drive. Canyon Lake is crystal clear.
