Ray Hubbard??????

[Ratmo]

Can anyone give me some tips on Hubbard? Never fished the lake, and would not have a clue as to where start looking for crappie. I would be going to the lake heading east on 30 from dallas, is the ramps that can be seen from hwy. a good place to launch? Is there a bait shop near that area? Any help would be apprecated [sp] Thanks

Hey Ratmo,

It's been a few years since I lived there and fished Ray Hubbard. I know the ramps off of I-30 are good, but the fishing is much better down toward Rowlett. There are a lot of stick-ups and more structure for fishing there.
I can't remember the name of the highway....64 or something...has a bridge that is good for fishing. It runs parallel with 30 and may have a good ramp there.
Up towards 30 is more open water area better for recreational boating.
I've caught some good fish from the water down toward that Rowlett highway bridge.
I do know if you exit 30 there at Dalrock Rd, coming from Dallas. Turn left over the bridge and I think it's about 3 or 4 roads to the left is Cheasa Rd. Turn Left there and it takes you to a causeway across the lake. BEFORE you cross the lake on that causeway is/used to be a dirt ramp there on the right.
I had no trouble putting my 14 ft jon in there and it put me in the area for some good fishin'
Good luck in my old stompin' grounds~

Thanks Anchorpuller, I've seen the bridge your talkin about. Never seen any ramps in the area. Will take a closer look now. Again Thanks
