Oh heck yeah. used to get the permit from the old guy on the corner who took care of the place, but havent seen him in a couple of years and have had to buy in town at City Hall. I havent made it out yet this year but always seem to some land some nice cats and bass out there. And not lots of pressure.

Haven't fished in awhile but was always a good eater lake. Think the only place to get the permit is at City Hall as mentioned.

Well spent most of sunday after noon fishing the creek inlet at the east side of the pond fished night crawlers not even bait stolen. went to where the pond goes into the lake and fished around some of the concrete structure. no takers when leaving seen a little trail over the bank and checked it out and thrownin double jigs caught 4-5 bait sized Blue gill and about a doz bass 8-12 inchs long . Caught some other Blue gills that should be real tastie they were 8-10 inch and catching doubles was a blast. bass fishermen were haveing a hayday or the 2-3 boats that come by were draggin in bass about every other cast. I need to find a spot to get decent worms caseys night crawlers leave alot to be desired.

Just got home from Odessa. Only got very little, 2-3", shad in the net but caught some VERY nice gills that I kept to eat! Got lots of bass in the 15-18" range. Tossed out some gills and little shad for a couple of hours with no takers. Nice night out, love this temp!!
