We would fish it more than Fork there for a while! I would drive right over Fork all day every day to get to Cooper from about 1999-2002. Some of the Fork guides were taking their clients there as well.

Afterward, Richardso, Allen, and Frisco have become members. Dallas does not get any water from the lake. The lake became a mud hole due to the actions of The Corps of Engineers mismanagement. They would lower the lake level every fall in anticipation of late winter and spring rains killing the hydrilla that was established. Exposing the shoreline to erosion from wind. When it rained more erosion occurred and the resulting muddy water and rising water levelruined the bass spawns for years.

The water was pumped to other lakes during the summer. Corp has never lowered water level on Cooper
