I have never been to Arlington or Benbrook; can anyone tell me what to expect?


It is never to late to take a kid hunting and fishing. Support today's youth, as they are tomorrow's future.

Sounds like someone is looking for information for the bass federation tournaments coming up in a few weeks. Jersey Dan is correct.

Don't forget the dirty diapers! There is a great dirty diaper pattern on the southwest end of Arlington.

The radial bite really doesn't turn on till it gets hot

The lake sucks, I live down the street from it and have no desire to go out there. I truly believe it suffers from a lack of fish and a major pollution problem.

There are no bass in Benbrook at all. Spread the word, I'd stay as far away from it as possible smile

i will say there are creeks/rivers on both of those lakes- and those were the areas I always gravitated too.

Benbrook takes alot of time learning how to fish it, been fishing it on and off for 7 years and still learning about it. Ronnie has a very good point about the creeks.

Lake Arlington if only it was as easy to catch bass as it is to score crack or weed maybe more of us would fish there. Lock those doors, take ur valuables with you!

Can't believe they picked these lakes for a tournament it they are that bad. Surely there are some better lakes in DFW.

How crowded do these lakes get with pleasure boaters and jet skis?

you dont have that many on benbrook, but the few that are there are so ignorant they will ski right on top of your baits.
