TPWD website doesn't reference it and apparently hasn't included it in their fisheries studies so there's no real intel available online. Is there anyone on here who can tell me anything about it? If the wind isn't howling 40mph Sunday I'll make the trip from Keller and check it out. the fisherman formerly known as Blu-Ranger....

It’ll be more stained than usual, but if it hasn’t rained in a while, I’ve seen 20ft visibility there. Because it’s not managed, mostly stunted, small bass The crappie are good sized, but I’ve heard from locals not to eat anything out of there. Lock your vehicle and make sure there are no valuables within sight. Shady characters there from time to time.

Looking for bigger fish so think I'll go somewhere else. the fisherman formerly known as Blu-Ranger....
