We absolutely love this place!! The kids have a great time and love catching the catfish. There was a 14lber caught while we were there...so ya, mostly 1lbers...but theres a few monsters in there too!
This became my 10 yr old daughter Brandi's best friend...she was petting it all day!

Sounds like we need a G2G at Athens..... Let's all meet up!!!

That's a great idea! Count me in.

what in the world is that?

Dinner!

WTH is that in the 3rd pic? looks like a hammerhead with a broken neck

Paddlefish.... They are in most of the rivers of East Texas.. I know they found some behind Fork doing PM on the dam..

Now how about a G2G???????????

Hamster1....that is a Large Catfish! lol if you look at the pic of the wall of catfish posted up higher in the chain...that is ONE of them...his head is at the top of the water and when the kids drop pellet food into the tank...they come up like that! I take it he was saying "feed me seymore!"(Little Shop of Horrors movie)lol You can pet them on their head really easy since they come up to the top like that...kids love it!

Cool pics!

cool pics. Someone here on TFF has a boat just like that one, and uses it often. Its pretty cool.

If you guys do decide to do a meet and greet up there. Let me know, I would be happy to meet some of the folks on this site.

Took the grandson last year. We fished and had a ball. He enjoyed the alligators. It's well worth the entrance fee and the drive. The diver feeding the fish was imressive. If you've got young kids or grand kids, take em. You'll be glad you did.

dude the fishing in the third picture looks crazy what is it i looked up paddle fish and is kinda looks like it but not so much.I have never seen a fish from fresh water of that kind.

Thanks for showing these photos, im definately going to have to make the trip to check it out.

Looks like a ton of fun!
