I`m  probably late to the party but is it true that Lakes Gibbons Creek & Monticello are closed to boaters & the bank fishing public & if so WHY?

From the TPW website
Gibbons Creek Reservoir is closed to the public as of 12/25/21.
Doesn't say why it why it was closed.

Wow! ! ! I can remember going to GCR back around 1985-ish when it first opened. Was in college and went there to sit in the Stand-By line. Fortunately there were a lot of no-shows and my buddy and I got in. That was a fun day. Boy-o-Boy everybody wanted to fish that lake.

I am not sure about gibbons creek honestly Found out it was sold to a local investor group after it was decommissioned.It will become a private lake. Hard to say goodby to a great fishing Lake. There is a new Lake that is under construction in the Northern area of the GREAT State to be named Bois d`arc. Can`t wait to fish it.

Looks like it`ll be a Biggun! 7600 acres with a 16000 mitigation area so about the same size as grapevine. Water for the north Texas water district.
