Think you still need to buy a sticker for your boat to fish it?

Good bass along the dam. I've never caught anything larger than 4 1/2 pounds out of that lake.

I might be heading to Lake Bonham this weekend. Anybody ever fish it? Is there some decent bass fishing there? We fished it for a few hours last month while passing through to another lake. This was our fist time ever fishing there. We had a fun couple of hours and was able to stick a 5 pounder. We just fished the obvious stuff but if we had a few more hours and would have looked for some offshore structure we felt confident we could have put a really nice bag together based off of what we did catch. We bought the lake sticker at a nearby gas station.

Fished Bonham on Saturday afternoon for a few hours...the lake is full but there aren't many reeds b/c it was low for so long, the water was like chocolate milk due to the recent rains, lots of pleasure boaters, and the only thing I caught was a turtle...

I caught the biggest bass of my life on Bonham Lake, 12 pounds 4 ounces. That being said, that was 12 or so years ago.
Right after that a friend of mine caught a 9+. Word got out and it got hit pretty heavy after that. Bass fishing has definitely gone down hill since then.
