Word of warning from a Texan. You can get blown off that lake faster than a kid can lick an ice cream cone. Be aware of the weather and watch what is going on. I have left the ramp when it was dead calm, the within 3 hours had 4' white to fight getting back to the ramp. The radio won't do you much good, but good sense and "being aware" will keep you dry.

P.S. It is a really great lake for bass, catfish and crappie, just fish where the locals tell ya, and you will do all right. If they know your from outta state, they know you won't be hogging the honey holes for long.
A gun in hand is a lot better than a cop on the phone.
