Just joined this year. any suggestions as to lakes that dry out faster. Fishing out ot a sun pro 120 or should I just use the lake boats?

Six O is solid rock.  Deer Trail with the gravel that was put in should be drivable.  Both should be good fishing.  For me Six O always a plastics lake. For Deer Trail plastics, spinner baits, chatter bait  plus I heard some using rattletraps.   Everyone has their favorites colors mine watermelon, green pumpkin and red Shad.  Good luck.   

Thank you. Think I will make a reservation for next week

Steve,

First, welcome to the club.

In terms of fishing after a rain, don't discount Sulphur Bluff Timber Lake, either. Timber has gravel just like Deer Trail. I recommend you take your own boat no matter where you fish. Some other members will probably disagree, but to me, fishing in my own boat is not only more comfortable, it's also more efficient as I know where everything is and how everything works. Trailering my own pond boat is also a lot faster than having to carry my gear to someone else's boat. Yates Place has both a bass boat you can use and a concrete ramp. Although Six-0 has solid rock banks, I found it difficult to trailer my rig there because of my SUV tires spinning on the limestone. Other than Yates Place, my favorite lakes are on the Cody Ranch in Oklahoma, but they're far from easy to get to if they've had a lot of rain up there. Just my opinion, for whatever it's worth.

Appreciate the input.I also like using my own boat . May have to travel to some of the lakes up north or east,  I am about 50 miles north of Austin.  Retired , so I have probably will

hey steve,, phillip here,, hows going on the new Pro 120? have you got you rudder and a bilge yet??

As a club, we would strongly recommend that members stay off the properties when we get heavy rains like we have had the last two weekends. We want our members to have the best experience possible each and every time they fish, and member safety is our top priority. Below I have outlined the reasons why we recommend not fishing during, or shortly after, heavy rains.

1. Fishing during or after heavy rains is typically very slow, and is obviously tough on the fisherman. You are not getting the best bang for your buck when you fish during a storm.

2. Thunderstorms, lightning, tornadoes, high winds, etc. create a serious safety risk, and we do not want any of our members to be put in an unsafe situation. You should never be on a lake when lightning or other severe weather is possible or present.

3. The vast majority of our properties have dirt or gravel roads, which become hazardous during periods of heavy rain. We do not want you to get stuck as this is another potential safety concern, and we do not have the resources available to pull you out. If you are stuck on a property, you will have to hire a tow truck. It is often very expensive to hire a tow truck to come out to a remote property and navigate tough roads.

4. We want to respect our landowners and their properties, and driving on these ranches during or after rain creates ruts in the roads and around the lakes. These ruts then have to be repaired which means the landowner has to spend the time and money to get the roads fixed.

Please note that we allow cancelations due to severe weather, and you will not be billed any penalty if you are cancelling due to heavy rain, winds over 25 MPH, tornadoes, etc. We never want members to feel like they have to fish during unsafe conditions.
