Will tell y'all about the best ever crappie hole since it may never be any good again unless that Hydrilla get back in full go. When they built this lake they built a cofferdam to hold the water back while they built the generator and spillway area. Well right in front the generators was narrow and opened up just a short ways from them and then a rope all the way across to keep boats out of the area. That cofferdam when in a semi circle from one side to the other where that rope went across. Now when the lake is full the top of that cofferdam was like 14' deep. However on the generator side it dropped off to 90' deep and on the other size next to the rock portion of the dam still dropped off to like 35' not so far from the rock. I just fished the one side back and forth pulling them little 1/32 Oz Roadrunners and killing the crappie. They are really good size too, lol! Literally I could take my wife (new to fishing) and the two of us would average 60 to 70 per hour!
I bet the length of my run was no more than 50 to 70 feet long as when the cofferdam dropped off to 20', I turned around and went back.
Oh and no need to look now as the Hydrilla is void there and our wonderful weed has been hurt a lot the last 3 springs with floods and if the sun doesn't get down there it doesn't grow.
Breaks my heart too!

That is the way I feel about ALL Hydrilla gone from Lake Austin after the introduction of grass carp so the wealthy dock owners are no longer inconvenienced.

Well at least ours keep trying to grow back so I have hope when it stops the crazy flooding maybe it will all get back like it should be. We use to have it to the top in 20' of water in the summers.
This was a strictly structure lake when it was new so when the grass came in we had to change out style, but it just got better.
