NEW TO TEXAS (IRVING AREA) LAS COLINAS

[Crappie Hog]

I'm an avid crappie fisherman that recently relocated from Tulsa, OK. I have a boat and was wondering where the best crappie lake is around here.
I miss catching the big ones.

Kevin, when I lived in Grapevine and worked in Las Colinas my favorite was Ray Roberts, by far.

From my time in Las Colinas when my bride worked for Mr. Gates I fished a lot in a small power plant lake named North Lake just off S. Beltline Road. It has a public ramp and produced good crappie and great bass. If I wanted "big" water I went to Lewisville Lake. Lewisville Lake had a vastly greater variety of bottom and shore line.

Lewisville, Lavon and Ray Roberts all produce quality and quantities of crappies.

Welcome to the board and Texas. I don't know much about the lakes up there, but know there are plenty of them and lots of crappie fishermen!

There are lots of canals in las colinas flat full of slabs ....that said grapevine has nice fish and Lewisville as well ....not much of a fan of ray Roberts myself .....one thing for certain all the lakes have them and west of you is good as well ....welcome to the forum

[Ketchn]

Pm me sometime and I can give a few ideas on some of the less traveled spots .....there are a few that don't get much press that are fun and one or 2 hold some good fish
