We never caught a limit but it was always good for 5-7 fish apiece.
    Lake worth is like that , everyone scared you can’t eat the fish and 100 Years old and all silted in , you sink a nice pile in there and its typically a great spot to drop a jig , lately the fisheries folks been dropping monster condos in there , Ez found them with some information I got on placement, never held any big fish on my visits , but might now

    In my sperience the bamboo lasts a couple of years. Might be time to drop a couple nearby for when those are done. I won my first tourney in my bass boat on some boo buckets I stumbled onto. Won by over three pounds. Yeah, it works.

    Yep same thing with Mountain Creek. They say the fish are not safe to eat and you seldom see boats on the lake. I use to catch alot of crappie in the creek that now runs between Mountain Creek lake and Joe Pool. Other than the creek the lake was void of any structure. I got some intel from the Dallas Baptist University bass fishing team. They know the lake well since the ramp is 200 yards from the college entrance.

    Used to long pole in waders in the willows on mountain creek every spring, back about 45 years ago big time , hammered some whale crappie with 18 inches of 20 lb mono and a big ole 1/8 jig on the end of telescopic 10 footer , man is that fun, on a side note, my older daughter finished college with her masters degree at DBU
