I am no expert. !! But Lake Palestine does not have the rule about keeping the first 25. It only applies to Lake O the Pines and Lake Fork.
I think it is a rule that first time Palestine fisherman must fish the Big Bridge on 155 for the first two years.
Only then are they allowed to look for brushpiles and standing timber.
They can also drift around in deep water down by the dam.
Good luck
