My favorite is Lake Lavon. It has large white crappie and find it pretty easy to fish. I need to learn Ray Hubbard because it is 10 minutes from my front door. You seldom see crappie fisherman unless you their under the bridge. There is timber on that lake that never sees a jig. I typically drive right over it when heading for Lake Tawakoni. Lewisville would be my second choice for DFW lakes. Nice crappie in that lake and lots of spots to fish.
