Thanks y'all. We would go out in the morning and stay till almost dark, too much trouble to get back. Shore lunches were the order of the day, if you could get to the shore. Still fishin that area not as many trees, above water that is.

I fished lake Palestine in the late70s when it looked like that with all the timber. Fork was under construction in those days with some pre-stocking of ponds that were destined to be flooded. It was closed to fishing then.
