This place has a big chunk of land, about 100 acres in all, with 15 acres of water. There's a small 3-acre lake that flows into a bigger 10-acre one. Plus, there are 4 more little ponds surrounding the big lakes where ducks like to hang out. If you're into jumping around smaller ponds, those work too. The lake is less than an hour from Dallas, so it's a quick drive. When it's hunting time, most folks set up in a hiding spot on the east side of the big lake, on the west side near the road, or at the point in the northwest corner. To hunt this lake, you'll need waterproof waders. This lake slopes gently, and the water near the edges is pretty shallow, which makes putting out and picking up decoys easy. You'll find cattails along most of the east side of the lake, perfect for staying hidden. And there's plenty of underwater plants to keep the ducks happy.

Requirements

Waders are required if hunting from the blind.

General Directions

Approx 1 hour north of Downtown Dallas. Only 1 mile west of 75 N.

Not much

Couple ring necks and one gadwall decoyed. Had around 10 pass by with little interest. In case you haven't been there in a while the lake is full. Will need waders to get to the blind. Earlier in the year…

Several Ducks

There was a thin layer of ice on the shallow parts of the lake but mostly open water. I hunted the blind on the east side of the lake. I saw 5 ducks flying around 7 AM but they didn’t…
