Lake Davy Crockett

Fannin County, Texas

moon phase
Sun times displayed in .
Northeast Fannin County in the Caddo National Grasslands Wildlife Management Area, approximately 14 miles east-northeast of Bonham

The lake has significant amounts of submerged aquatic vegetation, and most of the shoreline is ringed with water willow and some stands of cattail and bulrush. There are small coves, an island, cut banks, and some rip-rap along the dam.

Largemouth bass can be caught pretty much all year, but spring and fall are best. Start out early in the morning with topwater baits. When the sun gets up, shift to plastic worms. Black or June bug rigged Texas style is hard to beat. Fish for channel catfish any time, but May-June and October-December are best. Use the old tried and true stink bait, livers, or crawfish. Crappie fishing is best in the winter and spring with jigs or minnows. Fish along the edge of the cattails, quietly. Bluegill fishing is best in warmer weather. These fish are best caught on worms around the water willow or cattails.
