It has been several years since I have fished it but for 15+ years my father and great uncle met up there every year. Didn't matter what was going on in our lives that weekend was booked. We enjoyed the circus but never took ourselves serious. Made some great memories and rarely cashed a check. Got on the water late, wasn't going to run in the dark, got off the water early to miss the boat ramp chaos. Had more fun sitting at the truck with a beverage watching people back trailers and load boats.
I can imagine if your there to fish seriously it would be tough.
It was my first one and I stayed at lake fork marina, I had zero issues launching at 530-545 am or pulling out at 210 every day.
On the water it wasnt bad at all, I wouldnt even say I was around many boats most of the time. I guess I was in the wrong places.
I think there are a ton of people on here posting how bad it is just like when someone asks about xxx lake they say its terrible.. Its a sad day when fishermen are such jerks.
