Lake Clark when it was all matted up Lake Clark when it was all matted up “When”? Although I’ve not been there in months I’ve never seen it not “all matted up”. And yes, it’s a good place to practice your punching, frogs…..and if they’re not biting shallow you can always go to the deepest water by the dam and catch some of the biggest sand bass I’ve ever seen. Sorry to break the news, but I fish Clark once a week (Tuesday nighters) and it’s a c rig lake now. Lol. The grass is almost gone. What ain’t gone is in a foot or less of water. It’s getting lower. I know a year or two ago when the lake was low it was a crazy place to fish, but I'm sure all the grass has been blown away at this point. We cant have good grass lakes in texas lol they spray everywhere.

Rumor has it Tawakoni is usually a good shallow fishing lake with come pads and shoreline vegetation that concentrate bass and lots of amphibious creatures! A few years back I watched an epeisode of Bass Champs that was filmed @ Tawakoni in the early summer. The cameras went with the guy that was the MC for the show back then; he does a lot of commercial voice these days, cant remember his name. He caught a pretty nice stringer of fish but finished just outside the money but still had around 20 pounds. All his fish were caught on a spinnerbait in the pads in less than a foot of water. I'd say that would be an ideal situation for a frog as well. John McAlpine and his partner... what was his name, a stick out there!!! Yep, good episode! John McCalmont

Next time I see him, I'll have to tell him his new name. The episode I was thinking of was when he and Mike Kernan won it and then went out fishing afterward to show us what they were doing!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBJc16ID2ks
