I'm planning another bass trip to Tx lakes. 2021 I hit numerous lakes around Tyler in April. It was great. Would you stick with a spring trip, or is fall just as good? Is there a particular lake you can recommend for fly fishing? This is not a river trip, nor do I seek trout. Lake Athens was especially good, but the weather there was also the best we had.

I like fishing in October. Lake Fork and Lake Hawkins.

Welcome back! Spring is significantly better and leads to summer sweat and big fish threat.

I Fisw; thanks for the reply. The photos I've seen of Caddo look like a bayou. In CA you get a good looking spot every 30 yards; Athens it was every 10 feet; Caddo looks likje every 3 feet.
