Tourist center???
 

Give me yalls input on the small lake behind the tourist bureau right past the state line/Sabine river bridge?? Looking for bass places to put in with the yak

Man i fished burnout bridge last week n caught some bass along w some redfish... Pretty much same area that ur thinking

Might make a trip if I find a couple dry hours this week.. Tied some new flies I've been itching to try em out

Man im looking to buy a flyrod for bass and also some reds in the marsh. Any info u can lend would be awesome

Cabelas has some decent entry level gear, I would look on their website of your okay with ordering. The problem is you'll probably need a 7-8 weight for redfish and something a little smaller like a 5 weight for bass. You could probably do it all with about a 6 weight though. I've only been fly fishing for about a year but I use my dads old rods/tying materials.

There are some nice bass in there.I know a guy that fishes it from the bank. And yes, he has caught reddish also.

PM medheavy or outcast. They both guide fly fishing and can probably give you some pointers.

Thanx

I used to duck hunt at the very back of this small lake. I used to put my canoe in at the bend in the horseshoe drive closest to the water. If I remember there is a tree right on the edge of the water there. Then I'd pull the truck up and park in the 1st parking spots. The main part of the lake is deep. It doesn't get shallow ubtil you get to the back near the cypress trees in the middle. From there it is from 2 to 5 feet deep. Becareful of gators and snakes back there. Also near the south west corner of the lake is a small channel that leads into the marsh toward the river. I know during duck season this is part of where the marsh club duck hunts, but don't know about the summer.

Who owns this water body?

Me and yakbum have been doin pretty good with the reds but the bass and bream is always fun on the fly...I have a cabelas 8 weight and it's not bad.
Just some input?
