I'm guessing he is referring to White Rock Lake

I do alot of lunch break fishing around Highland park...(near Preston and Armstrong mostly)

Check out Williams Park in University Park.(Preston and Mcfarlin)

Also Exall Lake off Preston and Beverly..I fish it just about everyday around noon.

I went and scouted out Robert Lee park, since its closet to my work, awhile back.Didnt fish it,just walked it..It looked ok...The spots I walked around looked really shallow (Could be different now?)...It had some promising areas but I have a hard time getting away from Exall!...Its tough to crack most days,but its got some good bass in it!...and nice scenery.
Probably gonna try Williams park today at lunch...Across the street from it on Mcfarlin is more Turtle creek with some good looking water..Not much,but looked good and its fun to explore options

Not at all..Fishing is welcomed at both Exall and Williams park
(with a license of course)

My PB is only around 3.3lbs off exall..But during the spawn I saw a few fish around 4-5lb...and a monster 6-8 lber (and thats being conservative on her weight)..
I believe theres bigger fish in there..Tracking and finding them though,is a bit of a challenge.But thats what I like about it.

I did make it over to Williams today...I may have to bring ultralite gear tomorrow...Across from the park on Mcfarlin the sunfish were killing my swimjig ..Finally hooked a decent 8'' red ear..
