4.8 million walleye is a lot of walleye! Is that a typo?

So, I'm wondering, since they claim the reason for the closure is Covid, why is it the only reservoir closed because of it? Never fished it myself, but would like to.

4.8 million walleye is a lot of walleye! Is that a typo? Nope. But that was 1979. That’s why so many people caught them in the 80’s. In 1990 power plant started. No more Walleyes! ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/12/full-34948-79297-be016788_ffac_4d99_8d84_1f4882d2fc4d.png) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/12/full-34948-79298-56c1d8e6_ae9c_4aa0_8cd8_32c91a21715f.png)

Why was the park closed long after a decade after 911 when all power plant lakes(nuclear and otherwise) had been open for years? “Cus they can....and they want to”! Managing that park is a pain and a cost they prefer not to deal with! “Corporate Fishing Hole”!

You make reservations, They decide what time you enter the park and pay like $30, They decide what time you launch and they decide if you can go past the buoy in the launch area to fish the rest of the lake, if it's foggy they may delay you fishing for hours.

Don't get your hopes up. After 9/11, they kept it closed for 10 years. It may take 20 to open it back up from this hoax called a "pandemic". What do you mean by hoax?

So, would that make any difference? I mean, is it a great crappie or catfish lake?

Squaw is a great lake for eating size channel catfish. The crappie did not do well when the plant came online and heated up the lake. There are lots of small largemouth bass plus tilapia, drum and carp.
