Any word on this lake?

all the bass were abducted by aliens

ive never fished it just seen it... it is loaded with trees and more trees

I wish there was a "good word" on this lake. Cooper used to be one helluva lake to fish! Man, there were a couple of pond dams to fish where you could just about bank on catching 20-25 lbs of fish on C-rigs.

Ah, those were the days.

Dead mud for bass.
Awesome for Hybrids/Sandies in the Spring, Summer, Fall

You would think it would be better with all the fish they have stocked.

cooper was an amazing lmb fishery in the 90's. during the spawn you would literally see many boats around you landing 10 pounders. i sure do miss seeing all those hawgs spawning on tree limbs around the river channel.

WTH happened to it? I am thinking of fishing out there for an extended stay. I too would love some words of wisdom.

Thanks in advance guys

yea tons of timber ...saw a vid a while back of a guy running it was insane amount of timber in the lake

Water level problems I think.

Lake Fork guide Jason Hoffman used to guide there. Maybe he can help you.

They started pumping water out of it for city of Dallas water supply if I remember correctly. The lake was 20+ feet low for a year or two. Before the pumping started and lake level fell we would kill them out there. That's back when I lived in Sulphur Springs though in the late 90s. Haven't been in years but I guarantee there are still some hawgs in there. Just doesn't get much publicity with fork being right up the road.
