Beware the lake is a private lake. couple of my buddies got caught and told them to leave and if they came again they would be fined. If you would like to go bass fishing I go to Grand Prairie a lot of fish for bass at local ponds.


Hit me up if you want to meet up.

Do you live in Las Colinas, Mike? I understand Lake Carolyn is for residents.

There are several public lakes nearby. Eagle Mountain is a well known bass lake. Grapevine is close. Joe Pool is not far.

Welcome to the area.

@wheretofish...fishing there is good. Give it a try.

@smithhaven...Yes I live on the lake. I started fishing there because I like to jog around the lake and always see people fishing in the evenings. I catch and release only at this spot. Thanks for the info. I will check those other spots out!

Hey mike... Welcome to the forum. I won't be fishing there at all... too far a drive, but if that is a good spot and want to make friends... seeing as how its private, you could always invite people to fish w/ you. Just a thought. WELCOME!

Don't bother about new to the town.Gather friend in the town and get suggestion from town people and get ready for fishing in the bank.MY experience of fishing was The south shore of Long Island contains the most extensive acreage of tidal wetlands and the greatest diversity of habitat in New York. There is great great inshore Striped bass fishing here. in the bays and estuaries. stripers , false albacore, and bluefish migrate along the coast and enter the inlets at peak season.
