Looking at Sam Rayburn to semi retire on. From what I’ve seen, it looks to be a great crappie lake.

most every east Texas lake is full of slabs . dont know many guys that hit sam rayburn , but that means diddly .
i am sure you will get your fill of crappie in that part of the world . welcome to Texas :cheers2
Sam Rayburn is a great lake and about 25 miles from my home on Toledo Bend. I will say one negative thing about big Sam and that is if you want a boat house for easy access to fishing that is not possible on Rayburn as they do not allow boat houses on the water. Is the biggest reason I am on Toledo Bend, but I have fished both of them since they opened and eventually we spent a lot more time on Toledo Bend. However if you don't care about a boat house then Rayburn may be the one for you, but this is something you will have to decide for your self.
Like I said for me at 6 mile on TB, I am only 25 miles from putting in on Rayburn! I think the best of both worlds. Both are great Crappie and Bass lakes!

If looking at college Station, maybe research lake limestone.
Conroe is crazy crowded being closer to Houston.

Somerville lake is off the radar and pretty much full of fish ,crappie included .....
and kinda in the middle of no where too .....
not far from college station .....
i used to hang around down there ....just a thought
Toledo Bend is an Awesome Crappie lake as well a great Bass lake. Also tons of catfish for anyone wanting to get them. 1200 Miles of Shoreline here and lots of banks without houses on the Texas side. Also where I am let me add again, I am only 25 miles from Rayburn!

I've fished Rayburn and Somerville. Both are good choices for crappie fishing.
