Lately I have been going to different lakes but have limited success because I don't fish it that often...I am ready to pick a lake and see if I can learn and improve on it. Thanks for any input you guys have

Hard to fish and not that good of a largemouth lake? Whens the last time you were on the lake? It routinely puts out 18-24lb bags from spring to fall. 682-232-6380

Lake Worth is a GREAT little lake, if you put the time in to figure it out. It kicked out a couple 20lb bags last year. 682-232-6380

I hooked one last week that ran under the boat and all I could do was to hang on and listen to it peel off drag. It jumped and the line went limp. We've caught lots of fish there over the years.

If so, Grapevine would be my next choice. I have had better luck at those two than anywhere else. PBs LMB- 11 lbs., 7 oz. Falcon Striper- 40 lb. Long Is. Sound BlueCat- 30 lb. Texoma Hybrid-8.2 lb. Lewisville Cutthroat Trout-22" Yellowstone R, WY Rainbow Trout- 21" Blitzen R, OR Steelhead- 8 lb. Umpqua R, OR Redfish-20 lb. Panama C. Bay, FL

Only been out on grapevine a few times and had moderate success. Ive been wanting to try Benbrook too...Im right in the center of fort worth so most of the lakes you guys mentioned arent too far, 20 mins isn't a big deal.
