So innocent question; other then maybe a few fish dying after being released why would a new lake that has a 16" max limit to keep turn bad in a few years?
I haven't been there but sounds like there's good spawning habitat, and good offshore structure for them to chill and feed in the summer. Why would the population/fishing suffer?
I mean if it's clearer water and heavy fishing pressure they might get tougher to catch, but they should still grow well and be there right? Unless there's not enough forage? Water level stability will determine how well that lake holds up. A small watershed and a big pipe to the metro mess doesn’t work in its favor. Throw in a prolonged drought and it can get ugly pretty quick. Could be great or could be Cooper 2.0. Right, I can see that. Obviously if it's too low to fish that's no good...

Too many will need a self-stroke and have to publish reports and pics and be an internet pro to stroke their ego. Go now before it’s beat to death.

Lake will be "decent" for a few years. Right now 15-25% of the water from 0-15 feet deep is totally inaccessible and many fish will live there unmolested. The combination of a drought and the super pipe will negate that natural barrier and that could produce a Cooper 2.0 in the future. Only time will tell
It will be fun for a while even with 150 boats on the water a day

Luckily Bois D Arc is much deeper than Cooper. Max depth 15 to 20' deeper and average depth 12' deeper.....according to TP&W

I’m on Fork and haven’t had a bite in weeks.  Fished twice in the last week and a half and had over 20 one day and 14 the other. There’s bass clubs that fish fork twice a week that the entire club is not weighing in those numbers.

Could be some extra bait $$$ for sure.
