Lewisville has calmed down some since Dennis Rodman moved his operations to Korea

Imagine the calmest day, with no other boats in sight....the North end of Palestine will still take out your lower unit at anything over idle.

Lake Lewisville hands down. Idiots, idiots and more idiots. Hubbard a close second with the traffic and low water. Many hazards out there that people aren't aware of. Anyone who has ever seen party cove the first week schools out. . .they know. There's no lake more dangers in terms of drunks, idiots, wet fleas, underaged drivers, and yuppies with boats they can't safely drive. People who survive multiple summer trips come back with shellshock. In all seriousness, it is almost always the #1 lake in the state in terms of drownings as well. It's a deathtrap in the summer.

Lewisville in the summer for sure. I'll second Welsh as there are alot of floaters and sumps right under the surface and within the last year or so someone put rebar on some of the stumps on the main lake which now are just under the surface. So watch out!
I saw two boats running on plane on the north end of Welsh two weekends ago. YIKES!
Pinesjunkie,I cannot believe someone was running in Kickapoo. Above the bridge?

There are a handful of folks that can run the other stretches but, for me, it was always a tight pucker-factor. The satellite pictures from 2011 on Google Earth, when it was really low, show why.

I have to agree that Lewisville is one of the worst for idiots. Palestine for stumps, so too is Fork, Toledo Bend, Tawokoni, Big Sam, Falcon, Amistad. For wind, Lewisville, Texoma, Falcon, Amistad Big Sam and any other body of water that is not protected.
Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.
